Philadelphia Simply Stir (2013)
Rupert appears in this ad for the Philadelphia cream cheese product ‘Simply Stir’ … and how very delicious he looks, too!
Thanks to Kay for the heads-up re the ad and for the lovely screencaps! ♥
I’m not sure of the exact date, so I’m going to list it for 30 May along with the Vodafone ad, in which he also appears with brown hair.

Halo: Reach trailer (2010)
Rupert featured in a (brief) non-speaking role in the live-action trailer for the video game Halo: Reach. The stories in the trailer seem to all be about parents and children, so I’m crediting him here as unnamed father!
Thank you to Manuela for finding a copy of the trailer’s extended version on YouTube for me. ♥
You’ll find some screen captures below the cut. There’s some cool photography in this ad!
Virgin Atlantic (2009)
Rupert features as a businessman with the very latest in mobile phone technology (well, OK, it’s set in 1984!) in this celebration of Virgin Atlantic’s 25th anniversary.

P.S. The date of 1 January is no doubt incorrect, but the ad was apparently launched in 2009.
Wii Music (2008)
Rupert featured as the drummer in a few ads for the Nintendo Wii Music game. Thank you to Sandra for the heads-up!
I am dating this to October 2008, as that’s when Wii Music was launched – and it seems right, judging by his hair at least. (The following videos were uploaded to YouTube in 2013, but he had long hair throughout that year.)
… I always did have a thing for drummers.
Daily Mail (year unknown)
Rupert appeared in this ad for a newspaper I’m not exactly a fan of – for the ‘Femail’ supplement specifically. I include it here for his sake and not theirs!
I am not sure of the date, but it seems to be fairly early in his career.
