This is major old!!! BMW did a whole series of these films about 5-6 years ago, all with Clive owen as 'the hire' and all starring major hollywood actors and directors such as Ang Lee, Forest Whitaker, Mickey Rourke, John Woo,Don Cheadle, Ray Liotta, F. Murray Abraham, Robert Patrick, Clifton Powell, James Brown, Gary Oldman, Danny Trejo and Marilyn Manson. They did them as internet releases to get around various legislation in place on television advertising in certain countries. The films almost always depict seriously fast driving in urban areas or in dangerous situations, and some governments have banned this in advertising, due to it's 'suggestive' nature. just go on youtube, search 'the hire', and you'll find 8 different films

Really cool series of films - apparently all made because BMW didn't get enough PR out of being a Bondmobile! btw - it is Maddy getting in and out of the car - but the rest is a body double/ lookalike :-)
