Ryan Reynolds<\/strong> has joined the discussion around AI actress Tilly Norwood<\/strong> with a clever twist. In a new Mint Mobile ad, the Deadpool actor teams up with a real woman with the same name to poke fun at the controversy. The humorous ad promotes Mint Mobile\u2019s new 5G Home Internet while subtly contributing to the debate.<\/p>\n In a new Mint Mobile commercial<\/a>, Ryan Reynolds appears alongside Natalie \u201cTilly\u201d Norwood, a real woman who happens to share her name with the viral AI-generated actress that recently caused a major stir in Hollywood. The ad, produced by Reynolds\u2019 production company, Maximum Effort, promotes Mint Mobile\u2019s latest service, a 5G Home Internet service priced at $30 per month.<\/p>\n Earlier this year, the AI version of Tilly Norwood, created by Eline Van der Velden, became a topic of discussion in the entertainment industry. The AI actress sparked widespread debate and concern about artificial intelligence replacing real human talent, prompting backlash from actors, filmmakers, and unions.<\/p>\n Reynolds\u2019 new campaign takes a clever jab at that controversy. In the 30-second ad, the Spirited actor introduces Natalie Norwood as a \u201creal Mint customer.\u201d He said, \u201cThat\u2019s why we invited Tilly Norwood, a real Mint customer, to help us announce it,\u201d before asking, \u201cYou are real, right?\u201d<\/p>\n After she confirms, he adds, \u201cNot an AI-generated combination of actors?\u201d Norwood wittily replies, \u201cI\u2019m a combination of my parents.\u201d The commercial ends with a humorous voiceover clarifying that the new internet deal is available only to \u201ccarbon-based organisms.\u201d<\/p>\n The rise of AI actress Tilly Norwood has stirred major backlash in Hollywood. Reports that talent agencies were allegedly interested in representing the virtual performer sparked outrage among actors and filmmakers. Nicholas Alexander Chavez dismissed the concept entirely, writing, \u201cNot an actress nice try.\u201d Meanwhile, Mara Wilson questioned the ethics of using real women\u2019s features to create her.
