Looking miserable, overweight, with unshaven thick beard. Yes, this is Wayne Rooney new looks in his brand new Nike advertisement.
This brilliant commercial will be aired next Saturday, and no doubt Rooney will be a star-turn for his unique appearance, as much as being a huge talking point. If Nike used to show an athlete stars in their most fit, and perfectly well-shape figured, this time Rooney will have to be showing up as his wife worst nightmare in the future. Well, hopefully not.
This ad with “Write The Future” campaign is meant to tell the world of how the slightest margin of error can lead to the ultimate glory – or utter dejection. A good message indeed.
In Rooney’s case the advert shows the star slipping a pass to team-mate Theo Walcott in the dying seconds of a crunch World Cup game against France with the score poised at 1-1. Bayern Munich star Frank Ribery makes a heroic interception, ending any hopes of England glory.The following scenes shows how Wayne dropping to his knees, with the thought as he considers his life hitting the bottom of a rock. He got depressed, and imagining what it’s like if he faces a physical decline, and ends up with an overweight and a fat tummy, with a thick wild beard. Of course he looks miserable. Who doesn’t ?
This scenes, have proven us that not only he’s the best England striker, but also accomplished as an actor too. Great commercial.
Other international star appearing in the ad includes Didier Drogba, Fabio Cannavaro, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Theo Walcott, Cesc Fabregas and Iniesta.
