Former Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer (Margaery Tyrell) has yet to hang up her crown. Only this time, instead of ruling over the Seven Kingdoms, she’s the queen of a fantasy realm in desperate need of Nespresso, and her valiant knight Ser George Clooney is on hand to get her a cup…at least, that’s how the commercial seems like it’s going to play out. See for yourself:
Dare I say it? Clooney channeled shades of Barristan the Bold here, on a noble quest to find the perfect cup of coffee. Also, Nespresso’s description of the commercial is almost as weird as the commercial itself:
Exceptional coffee is always worth the quest. The noble knight George has saved the kingdom. “The Quest” features George Clooney in his knightly armour in search of the ultimate reward. Sharing the screen with actress Natalie Dormer, he defies space and time to get his hands on his favourite coffee. From a royal court of the Middle Ages to the modern day streets of New York, George stops at nothing to get his hands on his reward – Nespresso Coffee.
