The fried-chicken chain has hired actor George Hamilton to portray its founder, Colonel Sanders, in television ads for Extra Crispy Chicken. However, there's a twist. Hamilton will be playing the Extra Crispy Colonel, the first Colonel Sanders to represent a specific product: Extra Crispy Chicken.
The âValue Colonel,â as he introduces himself in the spots, is played by Christopher Boyer, who has for years been playing roles like âman in mattress storeâ and âold, seasoned farmerâ in various TV shows, according to KFC.
