First Acting Parts of Future Celebrities We Couldn’t Imagine Existed

Very few celebrities like to discuss the times when their careers first started and they were just trying to earn money for living. Some actors and actresses had to act in low-budget horror movies or other dubious projects while others started their acting careers on television, not on TV shows, but in commercials.

We at Bright Side would like to reveal 16 commercials that star current celebrities before they became famous and successful.

1. Brad Pitt

In the beginning of his career, Brad Pitt seemed to be ready to do anything to get to his favorite chips in the commercial of this famous brand. And he was just a good-looking blond guy with an athletic body at that time that helped him to embody a careless surfer.

2. Leonardo DiCaprio

Long before the Titanic, Leonardo DiCaprio was in a commercial for chewing gum. When he became more famous, he earned some money in Japan acting in a Honda Civic commercial.

3. Ben Affleck

A young and good-looking Ben Affleck acted in a commercial for Burger King in 1989.

4. Keanu Reeves

Who would have thought that Keanu Reeves made money doing commercials too? While he was an unknown actor, he worked with Coca-Cola and acted in a Corn Flakes commercial.

5. Bruce Willis

If you never knew that Bruce Willis could sing, then you’ve now got a chance to see this unique event in this commercial from 1986. Additionally, in the third commercial of this series, Bruce is joined by the amazing Sharon Stone. They make a wonderful duet, don’t you think?

7. Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul
