Apart from being a world-class wrestler and also one of the best-paid actors worldwide, Dwayne Johnson, aka “The Rock,” has created an image of an invincible man for himself. It’s no surprise to see Apple chose him to promote its agile virtual assistant, Siri.

The tech company’s latest ad, directed by Bryan Buckley of Hungry Man, features the actor exactly as anyone would have expect: unstoppable and ready to face any challenge that seems hard enough to be reached by a being born on Earth. But even the Rock can only do such thing helped by Apple’s virtual assistant, which is the co-star of the short comedic movie “The Rock x Siri: Dominate the Day.”

The nearly 4-minute-long video depicts Johnson as he uses some of his (for some maybe questionable) abilities in a quite absurd way to cope with, at least for him, ordinary tasks – taking Siri with him for a day that would have gone perfectly normal if the media did not make a challenging remark about the star actor. When he hears the words “Dwayne Johnson can’t possibly take on more,” the movie hero decides to prove them otherwise. He then embarks on a 24-hour journey only to mark all of his bucket list’s goals as “checked”.

Johnson starts his uncommon trip with a Lyft ride, whose driver sets to be the actor himself. The four-wheel journey ends at the airport, where he then flies all way to Rome just to paint the iconic Sistine Chapel. From Italy, he goes to the other side of the world in Japan, where he presents his new fashion line. And there’s more!

Yet, we don’t want to spoil more of the insane video, which the “hardest working man in show business” described on social media as “the biggest, coolest, sexiest, funnest” ever. He even applauds his collaboration with his virtual partner, which he honors with the title of “greatest assistant on the planet”.

“When your day is as epic as The Rock’s, you need a smarter way to take it all on. Luckily, Siri is always with you — waiting to help whenever you need it. With Siri, just say it and it’s done,” proclaims the tech company.

The Rock joins other big names that appeared in stellar commercials for the Cupertino-based company, like Drake or Taylor Swift. Actually, the latter managed to become quite a sensation in a video ad made for Apple Music.

Swift was already considered to be a global phenomenon. But if you were not convinced about her celebrity status, then maybe her collaboration with the company will do it for you. The video that quickly became viral, features the music star rapping to Drake’s song “Jumpman”. Yet, with a less successful outcome than The Rock’s video.

Doesn’t Johnson motivate you to embrace and overcome your own limits, just like Swift optimistically doesn’t give up singing, even if she falls?
