Versatile Spanish actor Javier Bardem literally walks away from his persona of movie villain ('Skyfall', 'No Country for Old Men', 'Pirates of the Caribbean' + real-life-inspired 'Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story') in this amusing one-minute take for food delivery company Uber Eats, titled 'When You've Done Enough'. As reported by Yahoo!News, "Bardem's on-screen villainy has come full circle. He made his name as a chilling example of pure malevolence in 'No Country for Old Men' and he's now playing a father with enough darkness to abuse his own children [in 'Monsters]".

I have a family that I go to at the end of the day, and I don’t want to show up being somebody that is not daddy or the husband or the partner. It’s a job". Some of his 'villain' roles have seen him darkly over-the-top, almost carnivalesque, and it's perhaps this persona that appears to have driven him to Uber Eats....
