Picture this: You’re channel-surfing when you see a weird mixture of characters in what looks like a scene from Star Wars. Daft Punk is hanging out with the droids, Snoop Dogg is chilling with Obi-Wan Kenobi and seems to be mimicking a Jedi, and they’re all hanging out at the local cantina to watch … the World Cup?!
Other cameo stars include Noel Gallagher, Ian Brown, Ciara, Jay Baruchel, and DJ Neil Armstrong — and everyone is watching as David Beckham is being threatened to get back into the game and join Jabba’s team. And they’re all wearing Adidas.
You’re not dreaming. This is the new Adidas Originals commercial, a spot that combines soccer and pop culture icons to prove that anyone can be a World Cup fan (or at least a fan of the Adidas Originals Star Wars Collection). Keep your eyes peeled for a young Harrison Ford and Alec Guinness, too. How many cameos can you count?
