Chase Infiniti Say It Was Surreal Working With Morgan Freeman in Audi Ad

Chase Infiniti has experienced a remarkable year. The 25-year-old actress dedicated much of it to promoting Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” with co-stars Teyana Taylor, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Benicio del Toro, as they campaigned for the film during awards season.

Earlier this month, she received accolades for her exceptional performance in “The Testaments,” Hulu’s new spinoff of “The Handmaid’s Tale.”

And then there’s Morgan Freeman.

Infiniti stars alongside the Oscar-winner in a new commercial for the 2026 Audi Q3. The advertisement, created by New Ogilvy and directed by Tilt Productions, features Infiniti driving on an endless journey with Freeman narrating, “She didn’t know where the road would leave,” before revealing himself as a passenger in the car.

Infiniti described the experience as “totally surreal” working with Freeman. “The first time I met him in person was when we sat in the car for the first time,” she shared with me on Friday. “I was like, ‘Hi, I’m Chase. It’s so nice to meet you.’ I was trying not to freak out and be a fangirl while pretending to drive the car.”

She had nothing to worry about.

“His presence just brings so much warmth and he is such a kind person and very warm on set as well,” Infiniti stated. “It was so special.”

Are you a good driver?

I like to think I’m a good driver. I do love to drive. I was in the car with one of my friends the other day, and he was like, “You know what? I just need to let you be behind the wheel.”

Do you remember taking your driving test?

I remember being so nervous. I remember being the most nervous for parallel parking. Terrifying. But that’s my favorite thing to do now. I think that’s my superpower. However, if you see me in public trying to parallel park, please don’t look at me because then I get so nervous.

What do you think when you hear, “She didn’t know where the road would lead”?

My character [in the commercial] starts in such a place of uncertainty, and throughout the entire story, you kind of see that she slowly opens herself up to possibility. I think that’s something that a lot of people can relate to. Same with the tagline, “A life of yes.” I think that it’s about trusting yourself and leaning into the fact that you might not know what’s going to happen in the future, but you’re willing to take that chance. You’re willing to take that risk, to see what the world has to offer.

Is it scary or a good thing not knowing where the road is going to lead?

Both. It’s something that you can embrace. That’s one of the beautiful things about life, not knowing what’s going to happen.

Now that you’ve worked with Morgan Freeman, pitch me the movie you’d like to do with him.

I will do anything. I’ll be a waiter in the background. I’ll deliver him his coffee, or I’ll play a barista if he’s going to a café. Whatever I can do to with him again, I would totally do it.
