As we know, Gabriel Macht played Harvey Specter on Suits, a man who loved his Whiskey. When Bear Fight Whiskey realized this, they asked him to be their creative partner.
However, I don’t think he was part of their creative meetings for their advertisements. I say that because the actor got beat up in their first commercial together.
They had a man in a bear suit fight him, and the director’s brother-in-law took his role seriously. So much so, first, he punched Macht in the mouth, causing him to lose a tooth. Then, the “bear” followed that up by tackling him in the chair, which led to him getting a concussion. For the final take, the grizzly climbed the rafters and planned on jumping on the star. But by this time, he was wise to what was going to happen next. So, he grabbed the bottle and headed to his trailer for safety.
I bet from now on, he will only work with actors in three-piece or birthday suits.
I would like to say that this is Macht’s toughest co-star, but I can’t. After all he did work with Meghan Markle for seven years.
