Huge Hollywood A-lister is the secret star of Marks and Spencer’s Christmas advert
HOLLYWOOD stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are the secret stars of a Marks & Spencer Christmas TV advert.
Ryan voices a talking reindeer mitten in the big-money festive campaign, alongside his pal and Wrexham FC co-owner.
A source said: “Marks & Spencer have gone all-out. Ryan is a massive Hollywood star.
“Their advert includes Dawn French, who has continued her role as the Christmas tree fairy. It’s a huge coup for M&S.”
The yet-to-be-broadcast ad is just one part of the High Street giant’s campaign.
Its first advert was released — featuring actresses Hannah Waddingham and Zawe Ashton, Queer Eye’s Tan France and singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
They are seen tackling some of Christmas’s more annoying aspects — including an Elf on the Shelf and playing charades.
Ex-England footie star Peter Crouch and his wife Abbey Clancy have also been signed up for starring roles in the chain’s yuletide social media campaigns.
Deadpool star Ryan modelled M&S’s Autograph clothing range in 2011.
