The German premium carmaker will promote the all-new generation BMW 5 Series in its electric variant, the first-ever BMW i5. It is a star-studded commercial titled “Talkin’ Like Walken,” with the Oscar winner Cristopher Walken driving the zero-emission sedan.
Actress Ashely Park, known for her part in “Emily in Paris,” and Grammy award-winning superstar Usher also show up in the commercial. The “Yeah!” singer is the Super Bowl Half-Time Show performer.
