Prada ad campaign features Oscar winner Christoph Waltz
Two-time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz is featured in Prada’s fall-winter 2013 menswear advertising campaign, along with actors Ben Whishaw and Ezra Miller.
Shot by photographer David Sims in a London studio over the course of three days in late March, the campaign was “inspired by the irreverent world of ‘60s New Wave cinema,” with the three actors as “protagonists in a drama of wit and enigma.”
Waltz, who has taken home best supporting actor Oscars for his roles as Dr. King Schultz in “Django Unchained,” and Col. Hans Landa in “Inglourious Basterds,” may be the most familiar name of the three, but you might recognize Whishaw as the Q reboot in the 2012 Bond flick “Skyfall,” and Miller as the title troubled teen in 2011’s “We Need to Talk About Kevin.”
It isn’t the first time the Austrian actor’s worn Prada in a high-profile situation. You may recall we singled him out as one of the Academy Awards’ best-dressed men back in February, the night he took home his second statuette while wearing a navy blue, two-button, shawl collar tuxedo ensemble -- Prada head to toe.
