Donnie Wahlberg Mocks Ben Affleck’s Awkward Dance in New Ad!

Ben Affleck Lets Loose in New Dunkin’ Commercial—and Brings Donnie Wahlberg Along for the Ride

Ben Affleck is trading his usual brooding roles for belly laughs in his latest Dunkin’ commercial—and fans are loving every second of it.

Known for serious turns in films like Gone Girl and Argo, Affleck shows off his funnier side in a fresh batch of Dunkin’ ads. The Oscar winner has become a familiar face in the brand’s campaigns, from taking coffee orders in a drive-thru to embracing full-on comedic chaos. At this point, he might want to add “Dunkin’ Employee” to his résumé—right above “Batman.”

This time around, he’s joined by a fellow Massachusetts icon: Donnie Wahlberg, New Kids on the Block alum and Blue Bloods star, who plays the role of the brutally honest best friend. In the commercial, Ben breaks into a hilariously awkward dance to promote a $6 Dunkin’ breakfast deal. Donnie, unimpressed, deadpans, “Don’t do that again.” When Ben follows up with, “Think I got a future, though?” Donnie fires back, “I just saved your future.”

Fans were quick to flood the comments with praise:
“We all need a friend like Donnie,”
“I love seeing this side of Ben,”
and “The best part is you can tell it’s totally unscripted!”
One viewer summed it up best: “The beauty of these commercials is how much fun they’re having. You can see Ben enjoying the ridiculousness—and so are we.”

With Dunkin’ rooted in Massachusetts pride, pairing Affleck and Wahlberg was a no-brainer. But the fun didn’t stop there. As a surprise follow-up, Dunkin’ dropped another laugh-out-loud clip featuring Succession star Jeremy Strong as none other than Paul Revere, adding even more local flavor (and absurdity) to the mix.

Looks like Dunkin’ isn’t just serving coffee—it’s serving comedy gold.
