Celebrity

The Emmy-winning actor returns as Walter White in the commercial, working at a pharmacy and scares a costumer who wants to pick up a prescription.

AceShowbiz - His "Breaking Bad" days are over, but Bryan Cranston is back in a hazmat suit to channel his famous character Walter White in a Super Bowl ad for Esurance. The actor stars in the commercial for the insurance company, showing up from behind the counter at a pharmacy.

A female costumer comes to pick up a prescription and is confused to see Cranston. "My doctor called in a prescription... You're not Greg?" she says, to which he replies, "I'm sorta Greg... We're both over 50 years old, we both used to own a Pontiac Aztek. We both have a lot of experience in drugs... sorry, pharmaceuticals."

"So... say my name," he demands, referring to his famous line on "Breaking Bad". He then hands out a bottle of capsules, but she says, "That's not my prescription." He insists, "It's sorta your prescription. Yes it is. Take it. take it. Take it. You'll thank me later." The woman takes the drugs and hurries out of the pharmacy.

Esurance debuted another ad starring Lindsay Lohan during the big game telecast. Esurance Chief Marketing Officer Alan Gellman said of the point behind their ads, "We want everyone to know that we're here to help make sure you get insurance that's right for you, not someone 'sorta' like you, with the help of our innovative technology and services, such as CoverageMyWay and friendly insurance experts over the phone."
