For its 2024 Super Bowl commercial, the casting director for streaming giant Paramount+ obviously had their arms wide open when it came to celebrity cameos.

The new star-studded ad featuring actors Patrick Stewart and Drew Barrymore, Reno 911!'s Officer Jim Dangle, Survivor host Jeff Probst, Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa, Peppa Pig, and more -- all of the characters find themselves stranded on Paramount Mountain when Stewart arrives to save the day.
His big idea: Toss the football-headed star of Hey Arnold! to the top of a cliff with a rope tied to his feet. When there are no takers, Stewart decides to do the deed himself -- and that's when Creed shows up.
“We need a hole in one before the seventh stretch,” Stewart says as Creed whales on their hit "Higher" from an overlooking ledge. “I just threw him hiiiiigher,” Stewart sings, “to a place where we won’t freeze.” As the rest of the characters sing along, and Officer Dangle shows off the Creed logo tattoo on his lower back. (Just some new tattoo goofin'?)
Though Arnold doesn't make it to the top, luckily they have Peppa Pig as a "pigskin" backup.
