'I think [the ad] was inspired in the way that it was shot, the way that it was made. I was happy to be involved... It's not the in-your-face big splash kind of Super Bowl commercial. It's a soft sell.'. But the Captain America: Brave New World actor wasn't thinking too much about the ad's broadcast debut on game day. He said: 'We're just going to be there, eating and drinkin' like everybody else. I'm there to watch the game.

He said in the ad: 'Longest thing we ever do is live our lives. But life doesn't come with an owner's manual... Mighta been nice, huh? But that means we get to write our own stories.'. Harrison then urges people to create their own 'owner's manual' for life and happiness' then adds: 'My friends, my family, my work make me happy...

'In film, Harrison Ford has overcome the odds and flown from one side of the galaxy to the other all in the name of it, and in real life, he's known to blaze his own trail. 'So yes, Ford knows a thing or two about what the Jeep brand is all about. 'As America's Most Patriotic Brand for the last 23 years running, it only makes sense for the Jeep brand to continue to be one of the industry's greatest creative supporters of the big game. And there was no greater stage to have Ford admit to America just how happy Jeep makes him.'.
