Kentucky Fried Chicken has a new Colonel Sanders, and it's...Rudy!?! Indeed, Sean Astin reprises his football underdog role from the hit filmRudy, this time yearning to become the next Colonel Sanders in a new KFC commercial instead of playing Notre Dame football. As Eater notes, Rudy, while icing up his shoulder in the locker room, tells his teammates, “I don’t care what anybody says, I’m making that chicken!” The ad ends with Rudy, dressed as Colonel Sanders in a full football uniform, racing onto the field, chicken bucket in hand.
