In the ad, Adrien films a very dramatic scene about paying taxes, until the commercial shoot director stops him and reminds him that TurboTax makes paying taxes less painful.
“I don’t do happy. If there’s no drama, there’s no Adrien Brody!” he says, rebelling and storming off the set.
“The ability for a consumer to know that they can trust the platform—that [TurboTax] will do everything in its power to make the experience somewhat painless and stressless is something that we have focused on and will continue to focus on,” said Trevor Kelley, vice president of marketing at TurboTaxparent company Intuit to ADWEEK.
He described the ad as “enhanced version of that message: We take the pain, we take the stress, we take the drama out of taxes….Ultimately, it’s done in a very entertaining way.”
