Darren Criss has had one of the most successful acting pivots in recent memory, having successfully shed his “Glee” blazer for an Emmy and Golden Globe-winning turn as serial killer Andrew Cunanan for FX’s “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.”
For his latest role, Criss makes his commercial debut in Taco Bell’s “Chasing Gold,” a mock trailer for a faux-blockbuster touting the return of Taco Bell’s Nacho Fries. The 90-second spot, from Taco Bell’s ad agency Deutsch La, tracks the fleeting fame of Criss’ fictional singer Zack Collins, who finds viral fame with his power-ballad tribute to the Mexican spices of Taco Bell’s popular menu item, only to discover that his newfound stardom – like the three-month limited availability of the Nacho Fires themselves – would be short-lived.
Nacho Fries have made four cameos on the Taco Bell menu since January 2018, and will be available...
