Twitter: Danny DeVito as an M&M is 'best casting since Morgan Freeman as God'
M&M’s hit the sweet spot with its Super Bowl LII commercial featuring Danny DeVito playing one of the bite-sized treats, and the internet ate it up.
“How the heck did it take this long to cast Danny DeVito as an M&M?” one user wrote of the clip, which sees DeVito — transformed from a piece of candy into human form — taking to the streets to ask passersby if they want to “eat” him. Another observed: “Danny DeVito as the human form of the red m&m is the best casting since Morgan Freeman as God.”
See what the rest of Twitter is saying about the hilarious ad below.

Not since he played Penguin in Batman Returns has their been a more perfect role for Danny Devito than the red M&M. #SuperBowl

I literally cannot believe that Danny DeVito has secretly been a red M&M this whole time

That Danny Devito M&M commercial was great, but I would’ve popped huge if his body exploded into 10,000 M&M’s when he got hit by the bus...

And Danny DeVito and M&M’s take the lead. Many have seen it already, but it’s good enough to laugh at again.

I wish I had the power to turn into Danny Devito whenever I wished on a penny.
This is seriously one of my favorite M&Ms commercials, #SuperBowl or not. pic.twitter.com/p63jWHncP3— Justin (@GranderJustin) February 5, 2018
