The 49-year-old actor recently filmed the ad for the energy drink brand, Whisbih, with his Workers co-star, Taiwanese actor Alex Ko.
The two, who were largely reprising their Workers roles, acted as construction workers who needed a bit of a pick-me-up. Their chemistry was immediately apparent, and they wrapped things up in just one afternoon.

Not bad at all.
