DUBAI: On Wednesday, Dubai Tourism released its third video featuring US actors Zac Efron and Jessica Alba.
In the short film, titled “A Brand New You,” Efron appears to play two characters, his younger self and an older version of himself who comes from the future to teach him life lessons.
The two characters go on a journey in the country’s souks and its golden deserts. They also go skydiving.
In the 90-second clip, Efron meets his love, Alba.
Last month, Dubai Tourism released two videos ahead of the long-awaited Expo 2020 event.
The first ad was a spoof of an action film that featured Alba and Efron fighting off enemies in well-known landmarks across the city, such as the world’s tallest skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa and the Museum of the Future.
In the second video, the stars appear as tourists visiting the UAE city. Upon their arrival at their hotels, they discover that they’ve got each other’s bags.
The Hollywood celebrities travel across the city on various adventures to meet and collect their identical luggage.
The films present some of Dubai’s most-admired attractions, including the city’s dunes, the picturesque Sheikh Zayed Road and historical sites — such as Dubai Creek and Al-Fahidi area.
