Almost two weeks ago, Apple TV+ went viral thanks to a silly ad that was released starring Timothée Chalamet. In the ad, Chalamet is surrounded by all of these announcements of Apple TV+ content with some of the biggest names in Hollywood… except him. So, he sits around doing the whole Timothée Chalamet thing, looking all handsome and staring off, wondering why Apple TV+ won’t give him a call. Well, fresh off that viral sensation, Apple TV+ and a wistful Chalamet are back with yet another ad.
As seen in the new ad, titled “A Taste with Timothée Chalamet,” the actor is once again enjoying his lovely life of being famous, handsome, and wealthy. And yet, once again, he’s plagued by this notion that Apple TV+ won’t reach out and give him a project. He notices new projects such as “Ghosted” and “Spirited,” featuring folks such as Chris Evans and Ryan Reynolds, respectively, and Chalamet just wants to know why he’s being left out. Oh, and did I mention, the whole time he’s having a meal prepared by a personal chef while he also looks up at a painting of himself? It’s quite charming.
Honestly, you have to wonder how many more of these ads Apple TV+ will end up doing with Chalamet? Also, will the streaming company just continue to not work with the actor if it means continuing to make these silly clips? Or, perhaps, this is all part of a long plan which will end with a surprise Apple TV+ announcement of a project featuring Chalamet. Then in the final ad, announcing the project, you can focus on a new actor longing for work with the streaming service.
Much like Timothée Chalamet and Apple TV+, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens. You can watch both ads below:
