Apple tapped actor, comedian and writer Larry David for what appears to be a promotional video created for a past Worldwide Developers Conference, though the short was never used.
Shared by Sam Henri-Ghoul in a tweet on Monday, the clip was reportedly set to air as Apple's introduction to WWDC in 2014. The company typically pre-tapes a brief welcome video that is shown to conference participants, with the tradition morphing into a complete keynote experience as the conference transitioned online during the coronavirus pandemic.
While the entire video is not available, Henri-Ghoul posted a clip from the short film in which David plays the role of an "App Approval" specialist. His desk holds an iMac, a statue of the Empire State Building, and what looks to be green and red stamps for approving or denying apps.
