AceShowbiz - Ben Affleck has enlisted his longtime friend Matt Damon and NFL star Tom Brady for a new Super Bowl commercial for Dunkin'. In the new spot, the trio join forces to form a super Bostonian boyband named The DunKings.
Against the idea is Jack Harlow, who tells Ben at the beginning of the ad of Boston's favorite coffee brand, "I don't think you should do this." The "Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice" star, however, insists, "Last year, she came to my work. Now I gotta show her what I can do!" referring to his musician wife Jennifer Lopez.
Alongside Matt and Tom, Ben later crashes J.Lo's workplace, interrupting J.Lo as she's working on music in a studio. The trio dons a very vibrant Dunkin'-themed pink-and-orange jumpsuits as they're also joined by dancers in similar outfits.
"What up, Bronx! Here comes the Boston Massacre!" Ben says as soon as he opens the door. Tom serves as a DJ during their embarrassing performance of their song "Don't Dunk Away at My Heart". Matt, meanwhile, says under his breath, "Sometimes it's hard to be your friend."
It's easy to tell that J.Lo and Fat Joe aren't impressed. As a nod to his iconic "Good Will Hunting" line, Matt concludes the number by saying, "How do you like them…donuts." J.Lo responds, "I'm so sorry."
"You had to see it, but I forgive you," Ben then notes, before blowing a kiss to his wife. Tom, meanwhile, shows his excitement as he asks, "Are we going to be on the album?" Sadly for him, the answer is no.
"Let's go. You're blinded by them pinstripes," hurt, Ben says to Bronx native J.Lo, referencing the New York Yankees. While J.Lo lets Ben and Matt go, she appears to be interested in Tom as she says to the former Patriots quarterback, "Tom? You can stay."
Concluding the ad, Ben and Matt can be seen walking away while looking defeated as ever. "Remember when I told you I'd do anything for you? This is anything," Matt tells his longtime friend. To that, Ben replies, "Chill, they're naming a drink after us."
Dunkin' is rolling out a DunKings menu nationwide on Monday, February 12. The menu includes the "Gone Girl" actor's own drink and the DunKings Munchkins Skewers.
