Farewell Matt Villines: Mad Ave, Hollywood Lose One of Their Brightest Funnymen
Posted in: Uncategorized
Prior to his turn at “SNL” with Rodriguez, Mr. Villines had worked on numerous FunnyorDie films including “The Amazing Adventures of Dave and Jennie,” “The Wire: The Musical” and “Sense of Smell With Bryan Cranston.”
And while he was big on the Hollywood comedy scene, Mr. Villines had a prolific advertising career as well. Out of Caviar Content, he recently directed a Letgo campaign out of Crispin, Porter & Bogusky, which invited consumers to create their own funny ads and saw the hilarious return of action star Dolph Lundgren.
Along with Mr. Rodriguez, he also directed the Martin Agency’s Stovetop campaign starring disgruntled Pilgrims, Sundown Naturals ads for Droga5. The pair were also behind the popular branded FunnyorDie Under Armour film starring Tom Brady.
