No one can sell fried chicken quite like Colonel Sanders can.
KFC Philippines announced that it will soon introduce the “first Filipino Colonel Sanders,” the fried chicken magnate whose face appears on the logo of the popular finger-lickin’ brand.
The video shared on the KFC Philippines Facebook account showed three veteran Filipino actors hawking chicken as they auditioned for the role.
We think Ronaldo Valdez is the perfect match… but first, he has to remember the lines.
Leo Martinez (and his famous accent) is adorable!
Pen Medina is Pen Medina. It’s hard to take the serious actor out of this guy.
Colonel Harland David Sanders was the chicken genius who famously built the global fast food brand KFC when he was 65 years old.
“He stands about six feet tall and weighs two hundred pounds. He has white hair, a white mustache, and a white goatee, and he always wears a white suit, a white shirt, a black string tie, and black shoes,” the KFC Colonel was described on a 1970 article by The New Yorker.
We can only conclude that he sells chicken well.
Some of the actors who have played Colonel Sanders are Rob Lowe, Billy Zane, George Hamilton, Norma Macdonald, and Jim Gaffigan.
KFC Philippines will reveal the details of the campaign on May 29.
