And The New Galaxy Girl Is...

I know this Isn’t beauty related but I just had to share this with you!

Galaxy chocolate have revealed today the new face of their yummy chocolate, and you’ll never guess who it is!

(Well you will if you’ve seen the photos on this post!)

Galaxy have brought back to life, the one and only Audrey Hepburn and this Sunday 24^th February sees her return to our  screens in their new advertising campaign which will be aired during ITV1’s Mr Selfridge.

The star is brought back to life using cutting edge post-production CGI techniques, to create what appears to be never-before-seen footage of Audrey in a GALAXY® advert.

Set in the 1950s on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, the setting is reminiscent of the romantic look and feel of award-winning classics that shot Audrey to fame. 

The narrative sees Audrey, a beautiful young girl, sitting on a crowded bus wondering when she will have the chance to enjoy the GALAXY® chocolate bar hidden in her handbag. 

As a car pulls up alongside, she catches the handsome driver’s eye and, to the surprise of her fellow passengers, seizes the opportunity to leave the bus to savour her GALAXY® chocolate in the comfort of the car’s back seat. 

As the handsome ‘chauffeur’ drives them into the distance, the end-frame reminds viewers that with its silky, smooth taste, GALAXY® is a pleasure worth taking.

Audrey Hepburn’s sons, Sean Ferrer and Luca Dotti, commented:

 “Our mother often spoke about her love of chocolate and how it lifted her spirit so we're sure she would have been proud of her role as the face of GALAXY®.  

The advert perfectly captures her playful spirit and we hope audiences enjoy it as much as they enjoyed her movies."

I love Audrey, I love Galaxy and I LOVE this advert!

Make sure you tune in to ITV1 on sunday from 9pm to catch it!
