Is That Warren Stevens?

Was watching Family Guy the other day, and saw a commercial for Skittles featuring a giant guy in a tube sock. On the couch is a couple of old people. The lady is actress Barbara Singer. But is that guy Warren Stevens who played Rojan in "By Any Other Name" (not to mention Doc Ostrow in Forbidden Planet)?

That looks nothing like him, IMO....
 
Sure, it does. If you take into account his age (90). Here's a picture of him from five years ago, and it certainly seems reasonable that it might be him in the commercial.

If I've got some free time tomorrow afternoon, I may give the commercial production company a call and ask them.

Ahhh, still not seeing it....;)

However, if you're able to find out who it is from the production company, that'll be cool...

Keep us updated.
 
Gonna have to agree - that's not Warren Stevens. Too bad - would've been nice to see him doing something silly like that ;).

According to Adland.tv, the man is Todd Martin.
 
I don't remember ever seeing the commercial and I can't seem to find it online. Does anyone have a link? It sounds like it's not even him, but it would be cool.

VBurd, just a hint: the link in my post right before yours has the ad ... ;)
 
Didn't get a reply from the production company, but did get one from Barbara Singer:

That was Todd.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I had a great time doing it.
Hope it runs for a long time.
