Life in outer space.

This ad for On featuring Zendaya is absolutely nuts... in a good way. The film star looks like she's having the time of her life in a series of vignettes set in outer space. For legal reasons, DAVID feels absolutely sure that she is not portraying a Vulcan in these wacky adventures, but her character is certainly Vulcan adjacent.

Director Nadia Lee Cohen has camped up the action to perfection, coaxing a performance from her star that is perfectly judged in its knowingness, bringing the audience along in a fashion which enables us to share the fun she's having with her three intrepid fellow travellers. Along the way, watch as she accidentally endangers them through an inability to press the right button, and then leads them to further adventures.

The closing moments of this film suggests there may be more to come... yes please!
