JAKARTA - The LV Halftime Show Super Bowl took place on Sunday, February 7, United States time.

At this event, various companies compete to display advertisements to steal the hearts of the audience. One of them is a Cadillac car ad featuring actor Timothée Chalamet as Edgar Scissorhands, son of Edward Scissorhands.

In the concept of the sequel to the Edward Scissorhands film, the character Edgar is told to have the same hands as his father. This ad shows Edgar's ability to use LYRIQ's newest feature, hands-free driving, called Super Cruise.

In this 1-minute video, Edgar can't get on the bus, play football, or even work properly. One day, Kim's mother bought Edgar a LYRIQ car so he could drive.

The character Kim was played again by actress Winona Ryder who previously played the original version of Tim Burton's 1990 direction. “It's surreal to see Timothée playing my son, Edgar. Timothée is a wonderful man - talented and sweet", said Ryder quoted from Variety today, February 8.

Tim Burton as the director of Edward Scissorhands' film praised the Cadillac advertising concept. "It's rare to see the work that you are proud of continue to live and develop after 30 years".

The release of this advertisement evokes fans' memories of the Edward Scissorhands film released in 1990. In fact, not a few of them hope that Timothée Chalamet can portray the character, Edgar if there is a sequel of this film.
