Dos Equis Keeps It 'Interesante,' Just Without the Man Himself, in First Ads by Droga5

The beer brand’s first major campaign since moving its account from Havas Worldwide to Droga5 last year contains no trace of The Most Interesting Man in the World, or the two actors who played him—who served as its iconic face for more than a decade.
