(Undated) — At four-million dollars a pop for a 30-second spot, companies like Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz and Taco Bell are looking to woo some football fans during the Super Bowl. About half of this year’s thirty advertisers released teasers before Game Day, giving fans a taste of what they’ll be seeing between the football on Sunday. The Mercedes-Benz ad this year will feature Willem Dafoe, who plays the devil who has a deal for the all-new CLA. The ad also features model Kate Upton, Usher and the Rolling Stones’ classic “Sympathy For The Devil.” “The Big Bang Theory” star Kaley Cuocu stars in the commercial for Toyota, Jimmy Cliff appears in the Volkswagan ad, and the Flaming Lips play their new song “Sun Blows Up Today” for Hyundai. “Parks and Recreation” star Amy Poehler will be appearing in an ad for Best Buy and comedians Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd will be in the commercial for Samsung. Psy, the South Korean rap sensation behind the viral hit “Gangnam Style,” will be starring in the ad for Wonderful Pistachios as well.
Some of 2013’s potential big blockbusters will be premiering their movie trailers during the Super Bowl as well. The trailer line up this year includes, JJ Abrams’ “Star Trek Into Darkness,” starring Chris Pine and Zoe Saldana; the third installment of “Iron Man 3,” starring Robert Downey Jr., Guy Pearce and Gwyneth Paltrow; and “Oz the Great and Powerful,” with James Franco, Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz.
