Rom-Com Tropes Won't Come Between Jude Law and His Order From Uber Eats

He needs some downtime, too

Can Jude Law browse a quaint bookstore or take a walk without a meet-cute taking place? When you’ve been the star of many a rom-com, the answer’s a hard no. And in “Romance’d Enough,” which just launched in the U.K. for Uber Eats, Law needs a break.

The :60 from Mother follows Jude as he avoids every possible rom-com scenario. Can’t he sit on a park bench alone and eat wings without someone sitting close by wanting more? When he and a woman reach for the last copy of a book, rather than follow his heart, he takes the tome straight to the cashier. For Law, happily ever afters are exhausting. Anything he says in a rom-com world comes out too romantic.

“When You’ve Done Enough, Uber Eats,” closes the spot, running on TV, OOH, digital and social media.

The ad was directed by David Shane and serves as a follow-up to Javier Bardem in “Evil’d Enough.” Even villains need some alone time.

“It was great fun poking fun at myself in this way,” says Law. “We’ve all had moments when we have done enough for the day and just want to relax. That’s where Uber Eats helps so much. They make it easy to enjoy your downtime. I can confirm that no one can make eating chicken wings with hot sauce all over your face look charming.” We’ll see about that…
