Versatile actor Al Pacino after spreading magic in Hollywood movies is set to storm the small screen with his latest coffee TV advertisement. For the first time Pacino has agreed to star in a commercial.   
 
In the advertisement, the 70- year old actor is seen promoting Australian company Vittoria Coffee. The campaign is directed by Academy Award winning director Barry Levinson.
 
Ronaldo Schirato, the marketing manager of Vittoria coffee said that when they first contacted the actor for the campaign his agent turned it down. Then, after waiting for six long months the company again requested Pacino to star in the ad and to everyone’s joy this time he gave the green signal.
 
The ad is filmed in New York City, Ronaldo said, “Al has never been to Australia so we wanted to catch him where he lives, in his city.”
 
The commercial is telecasted in two versions:
 
In the first version, Pacino says, “I drink coffee all the time so that should qualify me as someone who knows about coffee.”
 
In the second, he recalls his childhood memories and quotes, “Those cold mornings in the South Bronx, granddad would go into the kitchen, heat up some coffee and there I was, little Al, and he would just give me a little sip.”
