You can now listen to Morgan Freeman—the voice of God—on your GPS
Time to take the long way home.
Fans have obsessed over Morgan Freeman's voice for ages, and now, they can hear it every day in the car.
The 78-year-old actor's distinctive timbre can be recognized from Visa commercials, numerous documentaries, and even as the voice of God. A viral 2013 YouTube video jokingly introduced the world to the idea of a Freeman GPS, and fans are finally getting what they want.
In a promotion for Freeman's new film London Has Fallen, Google is borrowing the actor's voice for its Waze navigation app. Instead of a cold robot, you can let Freeman direct you through the world.
Freeman plays U.S. Vice-President Allen Trumbull in the Olympus Has Fallen sequel (though wouldn’t it be cool if it was a Driving Miss Daisy sequel?) and will address users as though they’re president.
While it's unclear how long his voice will be featured on Waze, something tells us you're going to want to take the long way home with Freeman as your guide.
