Ranking 2016 Oscar Nominees’ Car Commercials
A handful of Academy hopefuls have shilled for cars. Whose spot reigns supreme?
Whether you’re an up-and-coming actor or a household name with critical darlings and blockbusters alike under your belt, you’ve got bills to pay. Which can mean saying yes to commercial endorsements. Car manufacturers can throw enough money to make the most notorious holdouts step in front of the camera and force a smile.
Sometimes the results are brilliant, sometimes they’re insane, but either way we the viewers win.

Honorable Mention: Adam McKay for Dodge
