SAN FRANCISCO, March 5 (UPI) -- Parks and Recreation star Amy Poehler has been tapped to write, direct and star in a series of commercials for Old Navy, set to run through summer.
The first of the commercials will air Wednesday night and will feature Poehler as an attorney, and when a job candidate enters her office she gets sidetracked by the candidate's outfit -- obviously Old Navy clothes. The campaign takes inspiration from a successful Black Friday ad with Melissa McCarthy, where she runs off the set of a game show to buy some Old Navy clothing.
