DETROIT (WOOD) - Clint Eastwood will appear in this year's Chrysler Super Bowl ad, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The ad is expected to be two minutes along. It will be the latest installment in an ad campaign that contributed to the company's first annual net income since 1997.

The campaign was kicked off last year during Super Bowl XLV with the two-minute "Imported from Detroit" spot.

That ad featured the voice of Grand Rapids resident Kevin Yon, who went on to become the voice of Chrysler as well as voice ads for other companies.

Yon said that he does not know if an ad voiced by him will appear during this year's Super Bowl .

You can watch the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 5 at 6:30 p.m. here on WOOD TV.
