Ryan Reynolds has shamelessly (and hilariously) plugged his Aviation Gin brand while insisting it’s not an ad for gin, but rather child-friendly juice.
The spot, called Not a Gin Ad, also sees Reynolds market the new family-friendly film The Croods: A New Age, while subtly referencing his Aviation Gin brand.
He opened the ad with: “This is absolutely not an ad for – or partnership with – my top-of-the-line, best-selling gin. No way. That’s because we all know The Croods: A New Age is a family film and that gin is for mommies and daddies only.”
Reynolds then insists he’s promoting gin’s family-friendly, alcohol-free equivalent – juice.
Watch the funny business below.
