Now he really is: Wieden + Kennedy is replacing him with the 1907 vintage Miller girl-on-the-moon icon as a narrator in a 60-second spot premiering this week on Survivor, according to the brewer.

The icon-introducing spot was also cut to 30 and 90 seconds, and Miller was trying to buy a 90-second prime-time slot at press time.
