Sunday’s Super Bowl 2022 isn’t just concerning the Eagles vs. the Chiefs — it’s also concerning the day’s buzziest commercials (and Rihanna’s halftime show, after all).
Paul Rudd, Kevin Hart, Serena Williams, Jack Harlow and Sean “Diddy” Combs are only a number of of the main stars who will likely be lighting up the screen between plays. Also be careful for ads that revive characters from “Clueless” and “Breaking Bad.” Walter White may need died on that show, but he’s been brought back to life for Popcorners.
The sport airs starting at 6 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 12, on Fox with the kickoff set for six:30 — and The Post has the inside track on all of the night’s big commercials.
