OLD SPICE GUY LANDS TV DEAL!

Isaiah Mustafa, the man best known for his starring role in the comedic Old Spice commercials, has landed a talent deal with NBC. Mustafa, who has appeared in small parts on NCIS, Ugly Betty and Castle before his big break in the Old Spice commercial, recently said, "What's funny is no one knew me as being funny before. Because the only things I had done were these episodics and procedurals where I was kind of this tough guy, prison guard, cop, or FBI guy. So now, people are like, 'Oh, he's funny.' That commercial . . . really helped me to climb that ladder of success."
