Matthew McConaughey said it isn't accidental that his latest Super Bowl ad might fool fans into expecting a sequel to Interstellar.The 52-year-old Oscar winner shared with Varietythat he wanted to 'misdirect' the audience with the start of the Salesforce ad, which he co-created.The clip opens with the Dallas Buyers Club star floating in space in a suit similar to the one he wore in the critically acclaimed Christopher Nolan film, which grossed more than $700 million at the worldwide box office.

Gotcha! Matthew McConaughey, 52, told Variety that it isn't accidental that his latest Super Bowl ad might fool fans into expecting a sequel to Interstellar'I wanted this misdirect at the beginning,' McConaughey said of the ad, which premiered during the Olympics and will air during the Super Bowl.'I wanted it to open and look very serious and in space because we’re about to pull the rug out from under you,' he admitted. 'Some people are going to think this is going to be the trailer for Interstellar 2.' After some self-serious narration from him about 'the new frontier,' the actor shrugs and the camera pulls back to reveal he's standing in a hot air balloon that's improbably soaring through space.Suddenly, the action cuts to a San Francisco skyline, where his balloon more comfortably floats over the skyscrapers.

Sleight of hand: 'I wanted this misdirect at the beginning,' McConaughey said of the ad, which premiered during the Olympics and will air during the Super Bowl; still from Interstellar Spacey: 'I wanted it to open and look very serious and in space because we’re about to pull the rug out from under you,' he admitted.
