Bud Light is ready to release a new genie from its bottle, with the help of Peyton Manning and Post Malone.
In the beer brand’s new ad for the 2024 Super Bowl — which was released on YouTube Tuesday morning — a group of unsuspecting friends watching football open a bottle of beer and release the Bud Light Genie.
“Wishes are my business,” the tracksuit-wearing, mustache-less ghost tells the team, promising to fulfill every request. “Give me.”
The friends rattle off a list of absurd requests — from “80s metal hair” to “giant biceps” (yes, just one) to the power of invisibility — and watch in growing amazement as the ghost immediately grants each wish.
“Best night ever!” friends shout from their stretch DeLorean (which came from wanting a “sweet ride”). The crew wants to get into a bar with a long line out front and buckets of Bud Light for everyone.

“I wish Peyton Manning was my best friend,” says the jersey-wearing Broncos fan, and, like magic, the Hall of Fame quarterback appears beside him. Emboldened by the prospect of lusting after a celebrity, another friend seeks out Post Malone, who is promptly ushered into a bar. It even gets silver grills to match the rapper.
A fan of uneven biceps wants to be at a televised fight, and while there, UFC CEO Dana White makes an appearance. “He’s going to need another bicep,” says White.
Manning even joined in on the wishes and requested a house party. Here, Malone takes center stage with a guitar around his neck and a beer in hand. Everything seems perfect at a luxurious pool party until a life-sized T-Rex comes barreling through the backyard.

“Who was looking for the T-Rex?” one person asks.
“It’s my fault,” smiles the singer, who is scheduled to sing “America the Beautiful” before the Super Bowl.
Neither Malone nor Manning are strangers to big-game commercials. “I’m here for the three-pointer and happy to be back with Bud Light for my third Super Bowl commercial,” Malone said in a statement. “Together we’ve created something truly epic and bloody funny that I know fans will love.”
Manning, who retired from the NFL eight years ago and now hosts ESPN2’s ManningCast with his brother Eli, still enjoys being part of the day’s entertainment, adding, “The Super Bowl is the highlight of the NFL season for any player, and it always has been. and for the Bud Light team.”
A Bud Light Super Bowl commercial will air during the big game on February 11th. The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will face off in Super Bowl LVIII, airing on CBS at 6:30 PM ET.
