Nissan announced last month that brand ambassador and actress Brie Larson would star in its Super Bowl LVI commercial this year. However, she’s absent from the latest teasers that preview an “action-packed, comedy-thriller movie” called Thrill Driver. It looks like the commercial will parody the Fast and Furious movie franchise.
The stars we do see are Dave Bautista, Danai Gurira, and Eugene Levy. Levy is the long-haired pilot behind the wheel of the 2023 Nissan Z. He stars in one of two teasers that Nissan released today. The short clip shows Levy being chased by black-dressed men on motorcycles and a mean-looking mid-90s GM F-body. The car looks like a mashup between a Camaro and a Firebird, but it’s the bad guy nonetheless.
