Already a movie star in his own right, Downingtown native Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh will have the spotlight in an upcoming Super Bowl commercial for Bud Light with a special guest: their 6-year-old French bulldog Bugsy, writes Samantha Kubota for Today.

The set of the commercial is designed to look like the couples’ home as they vibe out to music while waiting on hold on the phone. Bugsy, described as a “stubborn,” but mostly “very good” pup, makes an appearance with Teller basically being a stage dad.

The production team tried giving Teller suggestions to direct Bugsy. After a few takes, they were able to capture necessary screen time thanks to a little food motivation as he had doggy treats in his hand.

As a big fan of Philadelphia sports, Teller is hoping for an Eagles Super Bowl win on Feb. 12. Plus, there’s an extra bit of happiness included with Budweiser distributing beer to the winning city.

He said it was great to be featured in a a Super Bowl commercial, and it makes it more special that his wife and pet were there with him.

“I think anytime you’re talking about [starring in] a Super Bowl commercial, it’s really flattering,” he said. “Personally, it’s just such a big moment. It kind of means that you’ve arrived a little bit.”
