BORG Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Matt is now promoting Bourbon as Wild Turkey's "creative director". Essentially another word for celebrity spokesperson. So this likely means the end to the Lincoln gig.https://twitter.com/wildturkey/status/760066867981651968 Edited August 3, 2016 by BORG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTAUS Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I still don't know his allure, I researched about his work, and eh, I dont keep up on movie stars, movies, and kardishians and other (what I call useless knowledge stuff). Maybe Lincoln will bring someone new? I betcha it'll be with the new Continental... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BORG Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) His Lincoln commercials probably paved the way to his gig with Wild Turkey, similar aesthetic and customer in some ways. It's possible we'll still see some Lincoln ads with him, but typically a brand doesn't want their expensive messaging muddled with other endorsements which is why they always come with media genre exclusivity contracts. We'll know soon enough with the Continental launch or if Lincoln makes another announcement. My guess is no more spokesperson for now....not that he was speaking in them anyway.

akirby Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Why would Lincoln and Wild Turkey be mutually exclusive? He's just a cool guy in addition to being a movie star. And he's easy on the eyes for the ladies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 They had him at the Navigator concept debut, so you think now all the sudden he'll just be gone? I think he'll be around at least through the production Navigator launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Chrysler/FCA Dodge Truck spokesman (Cowboy Sam Elliott) does Coors ads along with the Dodge Trucks. I like Mathew and his unique mannerisms. I also noted that Dodge has recently stopped attacking Ford trucks lately. That's nice to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANTAUS Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Isn't Wild Turkey some sort of poverty low-class bourbon ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Isn't Wild Turkey some sort of poverty low-class bourbon ? . Well, according to their website, it is a "super, premium" bourbon. Southern Comfort on the other hand..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2b2 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) afaik/iirc Wild Turkey used to a "cut above" back (1980s) before a slew of artisan distillers started while on the topic anyone (else) ever try Jim Beam's "Devil's Cut"?)
