Imagine how peaceful roads would be if every driver could have Morgan Freeman riding shotgun. Road rage might cease to exist entirely.
Now, this isn't just some fantasy: Waze is making it happen. The crowd-sourced traffic and navigation app has teamed up with Freeman, who — in a bid to hype his new movie London Has Fallen — will lend his voice to the app's turn-by-turn directions.
"Freeman, who plays the Vice President in the movie, will be there for Wazers from the start to finish of their driving missions," the Google-owned company said in a statement.
In the past, Waze has partnered with other big names like Arnold Schwarzenegger, comedians Stephen Colbert and Kevin Hart, and C3PO from the Star Wars universe. But it said Freeman's is "far and away" one of the most requested voices of all time. Now, the man with the distinctively deep, soothing voice will be able to hype you up during road trips with lines like "The American people are counting on you... to drive. Let's go."
Other sound bites in Freeman's voice include:
- "The time has arrived, President Wazer. The world awaits your commands."
- "You've arrived. It's been my honor and duty to see you through this mission."
- "Accident reported ahead. I'll get a line to emergency command."
The feature is available on Waze for iOS and Android. To set it up on iOS, go to Settings > Sound Voice Language > Morgan Freeman. On Android, go to Settings > Sound > Navigation Guidance > Morgan Freeman.
