“Watch me stunt roll out of a car in the next ad for BT Infinity’s ‘faster’ Broadband,” says Ryan Reynolds.

He will go on to tell viewers that life moves pretty fast for him. Once inside the house Ryan will explain that he needs broadband that moves as fast as he does and that is why he has BT Infinity, which now offers speeds of up to 52Mbps the fastest fibre speeds as standard*.

Dan Ramsay, BT Consumer marketing director, says:“We hope viewers enjoy watching Ryan showing just how fast BT Infinity is in our latest “Behind the Scenes” advert. We wanted to showcase how our new BT Infinity product is now the fastest standard fibre service. We understand that speed really matters to our customers and wanted to reflect this in an amusing and entertaining way.”

The television campaign will be supported by a strong 360 campaign including digital and social media with activity across BT’s Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages.
