Hellmann's Celebrates Nostalgia in Big Game Ad

In a delightful twist of nostalgia and humor, Hellmann's has released its latest Big Game commercial titled When Sally Met Hellmann's. This ad features the iconic duo of Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, who reprise their beloved roles from the classic romantic comedy When Harry Met Sally, which celebrates its 35th anniversary. In a hilarious homage to the original, the commercial takes place at Katz's Deli, where the memorable deli scene unfolds with a mouthwatering addition: Hellmann's creamy mayonnaise.

The ad starts with Sally, played by Ryan, sitting across from Harry, portrayed by Crystal. Dressed in his signature cable knit sweater, the couple is enjoying a deli lunch to commemorate their anniversary. Sally is initially dissatisfied with her turkey sandwich, but a generous dollop of Hellmann's mayonnaise transforms her meal. This delightful addition doesn't just please Sally; it captures the attention of the entire deli, including a curious patron played by actress Sydney Sweeney. The moment culminates in Sweeney delivering the iconic line, "I'll have what she’s having," a nod to the enduring catchphrase that has transcended generations.

Meg Ryan expressed her excitement about returning to her character, saying, "Reuniting with Billy and stepping back into Sally's shoes was a joy. I hope it'll be fun for fans to revisit this scene with its (wink, wink) new star, Hellmann's mayo." Similarly, Billy Crystal noted, "The opportunity to return to Katz's Deli with Meg was a no-brainer. Thanks to Hellmann's for their creative vision, we’re bringing some laughs and nostalgia to fans during the Big Game this year."

The 30-second commercial was shot in the very same Katz's Deli where the original scene was filmed, providing a true sense of authenticity to this whimsical remake. Crystal added, "Working with legends like Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal on this nostalgic and hilarious ad was such an honor. When Harry Met Sally is a rom-com classic, and adding Hellmann's to the scene was a perfect match, so it was an easy yes for this project," emphasizing the perfect synergy between nostalgia and flavor.
