Renting a car can feel like a serious mission, but, as The Corner's blockbuster campaign shows, Gerard Butler is up to the task - thanks to Enterprise's seamless service.
Smuggler's Guy Shelmerdine directed the action-packed 30-second spots with the help of Avengers, Bond and Bourne stunt coordinator Greg Powell, following the 300 star in a series of adrenaline-fuelled sequences as he attempts to book a car. Needless to say, thanks to the unruffled expertise of the Enterprise team, it all goes exactly to plan.

Sky Dive sees Butler free-falling from 20,000 feet to land seamlessly into the driver's seat of his rental vehicle, while Paparazzi captures a frenzied race to escape a pack of newshounds. As well as the pure joy that is Butler doing his action-man thing, the epic tone is nicely undercut by moments of bathos: when he finally reaches the car, he tries (and fails) to smash the window with an elbow, while the rep reminds him to unlock it with his phone.
Brace yourself for more Butler revelations in our Q&A with The Corner's creative team.
