Freeman's voice is being used on Google's Waze app to market his upcoming movie, London Has Fallen (the sequel to Olympus Has Fallen). 

In the movie, Freeman plays U.S. Vice President Trumbull, and on the app, Freeman speaks to you, the driver, as though you're the president.

So the next time you want to know where the nearest gas station is, turn on the Waze app and let Freeman do the talking.

You can download Waze here and find Freeman's voice in the settings area.
