Who is the actress in Amazon’s new back-to-school commercial?
For those who can’t quite pinpoint the famous face in the ad, Amazon’s new back-to-school commercial features none other than Kathryn Hahn.

More recently, the 48-year-old actress starred in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as part of the WandaVision series, where she played Agatha Harkness.
Hahn recently featured in HubSpot ad
Her recent Amazon commercial appearance isn’t the actress’ only ad job in 2022. TV audiences may remember she featured in a HubSpot ad earlier this year.
In February, Hahn donned pirate attire as she took on the role of chief executive of Pirates Inc in the CRM platform’s first global brand campaign.
The commercial proved a hit among the actress’ fan base on social media as they gushed over the star’s pirate character.
