Career
[edit]For many years Mascini was part of the theater group Hauser Orkater.[1]
In 1996, he won the Golden Calf for Best Actor award at the Netherlands Film Festival for his role in the film Blind Date by Theo van Gogh.[1][2] Mascini wrote the film together with Van Gogh and Renée Fokker. Mascini also played a role in the 2007 English-language remake Blind Date by Stanley Tucci.
In the Netherlands he is known for his role in Melkunie television commercials and in particular a 1997 commercial which won the Gouden Loeki award for best Dutch commercial of the year.[1] In the commercial Mascini becomes wet as a result of a cow jumping into a swimming pool and his response "Nog zo gezegd: geen bommetje!" (Dutch for "As I clearly said: no cannonball!") became a well-known phrase in the Netherlands.[1] The Melkunie brand was discontinued in 2001 and reintroduced in 2012.[3] Mascini reappeared in various commercials as part of the brand's relaunch.[3]
