A Campbell's Soup ad features a
real-life gay couple and their son.
David Monahan and Larry Sullivan are
seen feeding their son “Star Wars” soup in the 30-second spot.
Sullivan recites one of the film
franchise's most famous lines, “I am your father.”
“No, no. I am your father,”
Monahan adds.
“That's gotta be the worst Vader
ever,” Sullivan remarks.
According
to AdAge, the spot is part of Campbell's “Made for Real, Real
Life” campaign, which features a diverse mix of American families.
Yin Woon Rani, Campbell's VP-marketing
activation, called the spot “endearing” in remarks to AdAge.
Gay glossy Out
reported that Sullivan played Robert, a ballet dancer who dated
Will, on an episode of the NBC sitcom Will & Grace titled
Jingle Balls and that Sullivan and Monahan also appear
together in a Sabra
hummus commercial.
