Clint Eastwood To Be New Chrysler Spokesperson In Superbowl Ads

Ferris Bueller, Darth Vader, body-painted models, dogs, all-star celebrities, hipster vampires and CGI-aliens are just some of the colorful characters scheduled to touch down during the Super Bowl telecast Sunday.

But the biggest star could be actor and director Clint Eastwood, expected to appear in a two-minute Chrysler ad giving America a pep talk, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

The car company transformed its and Detroit's national images last year with its gritty "Imported from Detroit" ad, backdropped by rhythmic rising music from Eminem, that won an Emmy. Chrysler, owned by Fiat, said it wanted to hold out releasing details or previews of this year's anticipated encore, but the closely guarded advertising secret was leaking out Thursday evening.

Everything I know about Clint is that he is a "leftie".

I will not buy a Chrysler product - or any other car made by the UAW.
