Can Ryan Reynolds write your next ad?

AI keeps getting better.

Like scary better.

In fact it wrote most of my last email, I was just trying something out.

It’s going to write some of the larger parts of this one too.

Canva’s new Magic is pretty good.

ChatGPT continues to do some good things:

It’s added images now.

It’s about to start writing all your emails for ecommerce.

Now to one of its secret powers, the power to impersonate and take the style of people that are already really good at marketing…

There’s very few people that can market quite like Ryan Reynolds.

Which got me thinking, could we ask Chat GPT to write an ad for our underwear brand as Ryan Reynolds?

Would it be the same if someone else read the Chat GPT created script?

So I started with a simple prompt:

You're Ryan Reynolds create an ad to sell https://krakatoaunderwear.com/products/pinatubo-boxer-briefs.

This was the output:

[Scene: A luxurious living room. Ryan Reynolds lounges on a plush sofa, wearing a suave suit, holding a pair of Pinatubo Boxer Briefs from Krakatoa Underwear.]

Ryan Reynolds: (Smirking) “Hey there, I’m Ryan Reynolds. You might know me from being, well, irresistibly charming. But today, I’m here to talk about something even more irresistible – the Pinatubo Boxer Briefs from Krakatoa Underwear.”

[Cut to a close-up of the boxer briefs. The camera glides over the fabric, highlighting its quality and design.]

Ryan Reynolds: “Crafted for comfort, these boxer briefs are like the luxury sports car of underwear. Sleek, stylish, and oh-so-comfortable, they’re designed for men who value both form and function.”

[Scene: Ryan walking through a volcanic landscape, representing the power of the Pinatubo volcano.]

Ryan Reynolds: “Inspired by the mighty Pinatubo, these briefs are for the bold and the brave. Whether you’re scaling a volcano, or just scaling your apartment stairs, Krakatoa has got your… well, you know, covered.”

[Cut to Ryan, back in the living room, winking at the camera.]

Ryan Reynolds: “But it’s not just about looking good. It’s about feeling good too. Made with MicroModal fabric, these briefs are softer than silk and cooler than linen. It’s like wearing a cloud, if clouds were incredibly stylish and kept your private bits happy.”

[Scene: Ryan doing various activities – running, jumping, lounging – showcasing the versatility of the underwear.]

Ryan Reynolds: “Active day? Lazy day? Unexpected encounter with a supermodel day? Pinatubo Boxer Briefs are your go-to choice. They’re the Deadpool of underwear – versatile, reliable, and a little bit cheeky.”

[Cut to Ryan, sitting on the sofa, raising an eyebrow.]

Ryan Reynolds: “So, why settle for ordinary, when you can have extraordinary? Upgrade your underwear game with Krakatoa’s Pinatubo Boxer Briefs. Your downstairs neighbor will thank you.”

[Scene: Ryan standing, holding the boxer briefs towards the camera, with a playful smile.]

Ryan Reynolds: “Head to krakatoaunderwear.com and grab your pair of Pinatubo Boxer Briefs. Trust me, it’s the closest you’ll get to feeling like you’re wearing nothing at all, without the awkward arrest.”

[The screen fades to black, leaving only the Krakatoa Underwear logo and website link.]

Voiceover (Ryan Reynolds): “Krakatoa Underwear. Unleash the volcano.”

[End of Ad]

I changed the prompt a little bit and retried with a different product.

you're ryan reynolds the actor, you're filming a commercial spot for these underwear https://krakatoaunderwear.com/products/anti-gravity-boxer-briefs write a script that is comical

The result:

Title: “Defying Gravity with Krakatoa!”

(Scene: A serene park. Ryan Reynolds, wearing a suit, is seen floating a few inches above a park bench, legs crossed, reading a newspaper. People are staring, bewildered.)

Ryan Reynolds: (Looks up, notices the camera, and smiles) Oh, hey there! Didn’t see you. You’re probably wondering why I’m levitating in the middle of a park. Well, it’s not my latest superhero gig, I promise. (Winks)

(Camera zooms in on Ryan’s face)

Ryan Reynolds: I’m here to talk about something that’s truly out of this world. Krakatoa Anti-Gravity Boxer Briefs! (Holds up a pair of Krakatoa underwear)

(Scene: Cut to a man, struggling to jump and reach an apple on a tree. Ryan floats by, plucks the apple, and hands it to the man.)

Ryan Reynolds: With Krakatoa, you won’t just feel lighter; you’ll defy gravity! (Takes a bite of the apple) Mmm, gravity-free apples.

(Scene: Ryan floats next to a basketball hoop, effortlessly scoring a slam dunk.)

Ryan Reynolds: Whether you’re reaching for the stars, or just the cookie jar on the top shelf, Krakatoa’s got you covered. And I mean, literally covered.

(Scene: Cut to Ryan floating over a pool, people looking up in awe.)

Ryan Reynolds: Worried about making a splash? With Krakatoa, the only splash you’ll make is a fashion statement. (Drops into the pool, emerges still floating, suit perfectly dry)

(Scene: Ryan floating back to the park bench, landing gently.)

Ryan Reynolds: So, if you want to experience the extraordinary comfort and the feeling of defying gravity, grab a pair of Krakatoa Anti-Gravity Boxer Briefs.

(Scene: Ryan winks and gives a thumbs up.)

Ryan Reynolds: They’re a real ‘lift’ for your ‘spirits’. And your… well, you get the idea.

(Scene: Screen fades to black, Krakatoa logo appears with tagline.)

Tagline: “Krakatoa Underwear – Defy Gravity, Embrace Comfort!”

(Scene: Ryan’s voice in the background.)

Ryan Reynolds: Seriously, I might never come down.

(Scene: End.)

The question is can we replicate the flair with normal people?

I’ve been lately obsessed with stories of older customers writing into our underwear company telling us how much they love that they found our underwear, we don’t use old people enough in commercials, seriously.

So tomorrow is going to be interesting, we spend a bit of money on ads every month and I’m going to see if I can make my Dad nearly 70, internet famous for a month.

We’ll go for comedy, we’ll go for laughs, we’ll go for brutal honesty of what actually matters in life.

Good underwear.

The amount of retired people that no longer are worried about their public personas is jumping, and they just want to have fun, be noticed, and maybe have you say hi when they see you.

In fact, when he travels he hands out his own fun business card with his Instagram on it. Of course I can’t find it right now but I’ll take pictures for the update and some of the rough cut of some ads.

I’m off for the rest of the week golf tournament with the pops, but man have I ever been busy the last two weeks, lots going on and hopefully some stuff I’ll be able to share down the road.

Be good, have a great weekend and send me some of your best prompts that get your mind going, the entertaining stuff, not just the how to make business more efficient stuff because there’s way more to life than that.

Cheers,

Jon
