Aubrey Plaza’s Super Bowl ad highlights
Aubrey Plaza — the Wilmington-born actor known for deadpan comedy — has become a familiar face in recent Super Bowl lineups. Fans saw Plaza headline a Mountain Dew spot in 2024 and a star-packed Ritz commercial in 2025, both leaning into her trademark dry humor.
Ritz Salty Club (2025)
In the 2025 “Ritz Salty Club” commercial, Plaza plays a salty club member who spars with Michael Shannon and reacts to a cheery Bad Bunny. The spot, filmed in Brooklyn in November 2024, marked Ritz’s first Super Bowl commercial and leaned into a tongue-in-cheek, exclusive-club conceit — with Plaza delivering deadpan one-liners about being “the human version of Monday.”

On set, Plaza leaned into the role: she joked about how she eats crackers and quipped about boosting Ritz sales. The ad also drew attention because Bad Bunny — who would later perform at Super Bowl LX — and Oscar-nominated Michael Shannon shared the screen with Plaza.
Mountain Dew Baja Blast (2024)
Plaza’s 2024 Super Bowl spot for Mountain Dew/PepsiCo used absurdist humor and fantasy imagery. Dressed in medieval garb and riding a fire-breathing dragon, Plaza appears in a sequence that escalates from mundane misfortune to full-blown spectacle. The ad reunited her with Nick Offerman, her former Parks & Recreation co-star, in a brief dragon-riding segment that delighted fans of the show.
Both commercials play to Plaza’s strengths: a dry, deadpan delivery that contrasts perfectly with high-concept advertising.
Will Aubrey Plaza appear during Super Bowl LX?
There’s no confirmation that Plaza will cameo during Super Bowl LX. She is an Eagles fan, so whether she’ll be watching from home or making a surprise appearance remains speculation. Given her recent participation in major brand spots, a future Super Bowl cameo wouldn’t be a shock.
