It remains to be seen what the commercial will feature, but Nacua hinted that it will tie into someone’s childhood.
“We have some great athletes all representing Toyota. The story of connection, I think, is what you’re going to feel,” Nacua said. “The opportunity to connect with your younger self with the passion that drives you to be a great athlete, a great human being, and to give back, the opportunity to have someone, to be your younger self, to look at that younger self and say, ‘These are the things I would have done. What if I had the information that I had now?’

“And to be able to do this with Toyota, who takes care of me and other people who have been in my life and supporters of mine, is a great feeling.”
Nacua was also seen on Wednesday evening Toyota Glow-Up classica glow-in-the-dark football match for girls only, as a coach.
“I was having so much fun. They were throwing bombs,” he said. “I walked out and said, ‘Hey, the first play has to be a double move,’ and the girl said, ‘Yes, coach.’ And I thought, ‘That’s the kind of energy I need.’ And they were there enjoying themselves.
“We had a touchdown celebration with the Toyota Tundra on the side. Michael Pittman was so sad. Jordan LoveThey were so sad that we hit them, but the girls danced well. I had an absolutely fantastic time.”
Nacua seemed much more satisfied with his skills on the field than with his acting.
