WSJ All Things Digital reports that comedy actor Bill Hader, who recently announced he’s retiring from Saturday Night Live after his ninth season, will be the new spokesman for the mobile telecom brand. Hader got his big break when Megan Mullally saw him perform at an improv show and introduced him to Lorne Michaels. For his SNL audition, Hader relied on the ol’ standby scene — James Mason ordering donuts with an expired gift certificate.
The funniest commercial in the series is “Rice,” which co-stars Brian Huskey, who was in my first improv class at Upright Citizen’s Brigade Theater.
I say bring back Catherine Zeta-Jones.
