Actor and movie director Jon Favreau decided to post a video trailer of his new movie Cowboys & Aliens on Twitter instead of shelling out $2-$3 million for a Super Bowl ad spot. Favreau has 900,000 followers and it was made a trending tweet. Not a bad way to save money, Favreau.
Last night Superbad and Accepted star Jonah Hill was on David Letterman talking about his Twitter impersonator. “I have never been on the website Twitter nor will I ever be on the website Twitter,” said Hill on the show. “Apparently this kid has been talking trash to Jon Favreau.” Favreau is one of the stars in The Break-Up and Iron Man.
Twitter has been able to verify some celebrity accounts, but Jonah Hill definitely got shafted here. Regardless the interview is hilarious. Hill even called Favreau personally to apologize for what the fake account is saying to him.
