Dunkin’ undoubtedly stole the show with the best Super Bowl ad this year. The Super Bowl is not only a fiercely competitive sport for the teams involved but also for companies striving to churn out memorable and attention-grabbing ads.
Dunkin’ this year achieved this feat by featuring JLo, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, and Tom Brady all in one star-studded commercial, representing the essence of Boston. However, fans couldn’t help but wonder why Mark Wahlberg wasn’t part of the commercial. The actor finally addressed this question during an interview with Stephen Colbert.

With two of his closest friends,Matt DamonandBen Affleck, alongsideTom Brady, it seemed like a full house of Boston boys. However, Wahlberg himself admitted to wondering the same thing. He expressed his hope for Dunkin’ to give him a call in the future. He revealed,
“I was wondering the same thing, you know. I have no idea,—I’m from the wrong side of the tracks, I think,–very, very funny.–I’m trying to work my way into their good graces, Hopefully they’ll give me the call one of these days. I’m waiting patiently.”

While Wahlberg appeared visibly disappointed about not being invited to the Dunkin’ commercial with his Boston buddies. Online, people are glad both he and Affleck are doing what they love and can pursue their passions. While for Wahlberg, it’s his faith, for Affleck, it’s Dunkin’.
