Who plays Satan in the Match commercial?

The Satan Match commercial features a match made in hell, as the pair of Satan and 2020 meet in Central Park and later on undertake some adventures in an empty sports stadium, a movie theatre and other public areas which are devoid of people. As all of us are at home, under quarantine, thanks to COVID-19. The foxy duo steals toilet paper from a public washroom. And the commercial ends with them sitting on a park bench overlooking a stunning bridge and saying, “I wish the year never ends,” as they watch burning meteors plummet from the sky.

Satan doesn’t do a lot of speaking in the commercial, and the actor portraying him is obviously pretty heavily disguised. However, a report in Distractify has revealed that Satan is played by none other than Aaron Reed. While the large horns and spooky claws featured on Satan in the commercial are not real, but it looks like his muscles are 100 per cent authentic. The casting team made sure to feature a legit bodybuilder for the role. His Instagram bio states that Aaron is actually the world’s tallest bodybuilder at 6' 7". He weighs 315 lbs.
