Description:
Directed by comedy legends Tim & Eric, the commercial looks like a dreamy, self-serious 90s cologne ad. In the film, Cera declares: ā€œIā€™m Michael Cera and this is my cream... oh, you didn't know?ā€ Then we follow Cera in what appears to be a bizarre fever dream: he is massaging himself, climbing a mountain with moisturizer ("let my cream hydrate you!"), and hanging with male models in sleeveless dermatologist coats. Finally, it cuts to a board room revealing Michael is actually pitching this film to dermatologists. They unanimously reject him. The end super reads: Developed with dermatologists. Not Michael Cera.
