Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan’sreunion has been revealed and it’s… a Super Bowl commercial!
In the new ad released Wednesday for Hellmann’s mayonnaise, the “When Harry Met Sally” co-stars are right back where it all started, sitting in New York City’s famous Katz’s Delicatessen, where one of the most iconic scenes from the 1989 film took place.
When Sally Met Hellmann’s Super Bowl commercial
“I can’t believe they let us back in this place,” Crystal says to Ryan in the commercial. When Ryan asks “Why?” Crystal says “Hello…,” nodding to the famous, hilarious deli scene from the classic.
“Nobody remembers that,” responds Ryan, shrugging off the reference.

As Ryan and Crystal dig into their sandwiches, Ryan expresses displeasure but after she adds mayonnaise to her sandwich, she immediately begins to really enjoy the sandwich, channeling her famous excited reaction from the original film, 35 years later.
“Here we go,” responds Crystal in annoyance.
As Ryan continues, banging her hands on the table and rolling her head back, Crystal chimes in, “this one’s real.”
“Lunch and a show,” he says, addressing onlookers.

A surprise twist at the end reveals Sydney Sweeney sitting nearby who delivers the now-iconic punchline, “I’ll have what she’s having” — which was originally delivered by “When Harry Met Sally” director Rob Reiner’s mother Estelle Reiner.
The 30 second spot will air in the second quarter of the Super Bowl on Feb. 9, while a longer 60 second version will debut on social media.
“The opportunity to return to Katz’s Deli with Meg was a no brainer,” Crystal said in a statement introducing the advertisement.
“Thanks to Hellmann’s, who came up with the concept and wrote a really funny spot, we’re bringing some laughs and nostalgia and helping When Harry Met Sally celebrate its 35th Anniversary during the Big Game this year,” Crystal continued.
Ryan added in a statement, “Reuniting with Billy and stepping back into Sally’s shoes was a joy.”
Hellmann’s tapped renowned director Jake Szymanski, an alum of comedic powerhouses like “Saturday Night Live” and Funny or Die, to oversee the new spot.
In a preview event at Katz’s on Tuesday night, Szymanski said the brand “had all the right pieces in place” with Ryan, Crystal and Katz’s all signed on to create the commercial, revealing that this “was the first time either of them had been back at Katz’s since they shot the scene.”
“Obviously I’m a huge fan of the movie — the biggest thing for me when you have celebrities like this and doing something iconic, is you want to try to make something that feels like only they could have done it,” he said. “When you have good performers let them perform in a way that feels special — obviously you have to do it with Billy and Meg.”
Szymanski noted that “it’s also a commercial that I feel like integrated Hellmann’s really well, it’s not forcing itself somewhere it shouldn’t.”

Hellmann’s and Katz’s also teamed up to create the “What She’s Having” Sandwich Package — a new bundle available online for nationwide delivery that includes all the ingredients and recipe to make Meg Ryan’s sandwich order, complete with Hellmann’s mayonnaise, plus Crystal’s pastrami sandwich. Each kit costs $120, with free shipping, and can feed four to six people. Limited quantities available.
Before the big game, check out a first look at Super Bowl ads featuring big stars here.
Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, the beloved stars of the classic romantic comedy “When Harry Met Sally,” reunited for a hilarious Super Bowl ad that paid homage to their iconic film.
In the ad, Crystal and Ryan recreated the famous scene from the movie where Sally fakes an orgasm in a deli, but with a twist. This time, they were in a crowded football stadium, and Crystal’s over-the-top performance had the entire crowd in stitches.
The ad cleverly incorporated references to the original film, with Crystal’s character even ordering a sandwich with the famous line, “I’ll have what she’s having.”
Fans of “When Harry Met Sally” were delighted to see the two stars back together on screen, bringing their signature chemistry and comedic timing to the big game. It was a fun and nostalgic moment that had viewers laughing and reminiscing about the beloved romantic comedy.
Overall, the Super Bowl ad starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan was a delightful throwback that brought joy to fans of the film and added some humor to the game day festivities.
Viewers tuning into the Super Bowl (on Fox, Tubi and NFL+) may see some familiar faces in an advertisement for mayonnaise.
Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal reconvened 36 years later to re-create the iconic diner scene from “When Harry Met Sally” (where Ryan loudly acts out a particular R-rated deed to make a point).
In the 60-second spot, the rom-com queen, now 63, and comedian, 76, returned to Manhattan’s Katz’s Deli to dine on sandwiches.
But it’s not just these two successful actors you may recognize in the Hellman’s ad. Spokane’s Sydney Sweeney makes a cameo, too.
After Ryan puts Hellmann’s mayonnaise on her sandwich, she begins to make noises of pleasure.
Sweeney (of “Immaculate,” “Euphoria” “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood,” “Madame Web” and “Anyone But You” fame) then utters the line made famous by director Rob Reiner’s mother Estelle in the 1989 film: “I’ll have what she’s having.”
The line is ranked No. 33 on the American Film Institute’s list of the Top 100 movie quotes.
Crystal told People on Wednesday that the on-set reunion with Ryan “felt the same” as it did three decades earlier.
“It’s the first time that we’ve been offered something like that,” the six-time Emmy winner told People.
As for working with Sweeney? Both actors agreed the 27-year-old did the line justice.
“She’s adorable,” Crystal told People. “That’s a big deal. It’s an iconic line and it’s a big honor to get to do that. And a heavy burden.”
“It was game and fun and loose and ballsy and just seemed to be having a blast while she was there,” Ryan said. “She’s a completely adorable person.”
Spokane’s Sydney Sweeney makes cameo in Super Bowl ad re-creating iconic ‘When Harry Met Sally’ scene with Meg Ryan, Billy Crystal
Spokane native and rising Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney stole the spotlight during this year’s Super Bowl with a memorable cameo in a commercial that paid homage to the classic romantic comedy “When Harry Met Sally.”
In the ad, Sweeney re-created the iconic deli scene from the movie, where Meg Ryan famously fakes an orgasm in front of Billy Crystal. Sweeney’s performance was pitch-perfect, capturing the essence of Ryan’s original performance while adding her own modern twist.
Fans were thrilled to see Sweeney sharing the screen with two legends of the silver screen, and many took to social media to praise her acting chops and undeniable chemistry with Crystal.
Sweeney, who got her start in the industry at a young age, has been making waves in Hollywood with roles in hit shows like “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus.” Her star is on the rise, and this Super Bowl cameo is just the latest example of her talent and versatility.
Spokane is proud to call Sydney Sweeney one of its own, and we can’t wait to see what she does next on the big screen. Keep shining, Sydney!

While most of us are trying to keep our Januarys dry and our resolutions kept, 2025 has already proven to be another booked and busy year for Sydney Sweeney. The Cosmo cover girl is producing and starring in two major movies this year and reportedly heading back to her roots as Cassie on Euphoria. Not to mention, she’s still basking in the glow of her blockbuster hit Anyone But You, where she brought the art of romantic comedies to a new generation alongside Glen Powell.
Now, Syd is lending her movie star magic to her first-ever Super Bowl ad with Hellmann’s. The beloved brand’s game day spot is bound to be iconic as Sydney joins the ranks of rom-com royalty, Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, to recreate their famous When Harry Met Sally scene at Katz’s Deli in NYC. Yeah, you—and your parents—know the one.
Sydney caught up with Cosmopolitan on set to dish about her experience meeting Meg and Billy for the first time and to unpack her grilled cheese lore (including her fave snacking hack). She even gushed about her favorite storytelling tropes and revealed who she’d want to work with on a rom-com next. We’re truly seated for all of it!
2025 is already proving to be a huge year for you, with projects like Barbarella and your Christy Martin biopic on the horizon. Both are based on iconic figures—how did you interpret each role?
Christy Martin has been such an incredible transformation—physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s been one of the most immersive transformations I’ve ever made, and being able to have Christy on set with me almost every day has been inspiring and so emotional at the same time. I remember on the last day, we were all crying and it was such a beautiful experience. It was also empowering to see someone who’s gone through so much, sitting there and watching her life be performed and put together on a big screen.
It’s truly an honor to be able to do it, and I’m so excited for Barbarella as well. Having such empowering and iconic female characters to play is a treat for me—it’s honestly all a dream.
Speaking of big career moments, this is your first-ever ad during the big game. These spots often become part of pop culture history. Were you thinking about that legacy while filming?
I’ve just been pinching myself all day. It’s such an iconic thing to be part of with Meg and Billy and everybody here. I’m looking around in shock that I am a part of this and I’m so excited. I think the fans are gonna have a good time with it as well.
Okay, I have to know: What has it been like working with rom-com royalty like Meg and Billy? Had you met before working on the ad?
We had not met before. Honestly, it’s been such a surreal experience because I really feel like they are part of the films that paved the way for the rom-com genre and it’s evident in how many people love those films. Being able to be in this moment with them and especially recreating such an iconic moment…I don’t know what life is right now. It’s really, really cool.

What is the first ad you remember seeing? Do you have any favorites?
Oh my gosh. I mean, I do feel like the Hellmann’s commercial last year was really funny. I’m more of a dog person, but I think that the cat, Kate McKinnon, and Pete Davidson were really good and I enjoyed it. That one definitely stood out to me, and they always have really fun commercials every single year.
Do you have any must-have snacks or meals that help you power through long days on set?
I don’t know if you’ve seen Anyone But You, but one of the big moments was eating grilled cheese, and it’s one of my favorite snacks. I always make them grilled in mayo, so being able to put rom-coms and mayo and grilled cheese all in one space through this Hellmann’s ad feels like a huge, world-building, everything’s closing-in moment.
Courtesy of Hellman’s
First of all, I love Anyone But You. The fact that it played a role was personal to me because I’m a grilled cheese connoisseur and I do that same trick with the mayo. I felt so seen.
Yeah, and then seeing all the TikToks of people with grilled cheese after the movie came out was so funny. It was a really fun moment to be part of.
That film brought the art of the rom-com back to the masses and kickstarted a resurgence for a new audience. Do you have a favorite recent rom-com?
God, I am a sucker for old rom-coms, from the early 2000s era. Give me more like My Best Friend’s Wedding, and I feel like I’m good. Would we classify Crazy Rich Asians as a rom-com?
Of course! I watched it for the first time a few months ago, actually, and I was locked in. The concept is so silly and I love the parties in massive houses and the original Monster-in-Law vibe—that’s another really great one.
Completely! Rom-coms deserve to be big, world-building, and fun experiences.

When Harry Met Sally follows the friendship-to-lovers trope while Anyone But You nails enemies-to-lovers. Do you have any favorite tropes you love seeing onscreen?
Enemies to lovers, for sure. I think that’s why I gravitated toward Anyone But You so much. It’s a trope where you’re like, “I hope this happens to me in real life one day,” and you wait for it. That’s one of my favorites because there’s a thin line between the tension of absolutely not standing somebody but you know them so well, and that’s why you’re able to have that hate and play off of each other because you can really twist the knife.
Any reason I have to wax poetic about a rom-com, especially with someone who’s a force in the genre now, is just so special. So I’m wondering…if you were going to remake When Harry Met Sally in 2025 with yourself as Sally, who would you cast as your Harry?
Don’t even go there, we can’t! This is such a huge responsibility right now…
I know, how dare I even ask!
Oh my goodness. I just watched Gladiator II, so I’d love to work with Paul Mescal. I think he’s amazing and I’d love to see him in a really fun rom-com. I feel like we need him in a rom-com.
Parts of this interview have been edited and condensed for clarity.

Legendary actor Meryl Streep was very nearly not cast in a role which fans say is one of her best.
Producers of the film had worried over Merry Streep ‘s casting and suggested the star known for films like Kramer vs. Kramer, The Deer Hunter, and Sophie’s choice, had “never been funny”. Though she was nearly passed on for the role, Streep would end up securing her spot in the film and was later nominated for an Academy Award .
Though she was the first choice for Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada, the producers of the film suggested she would not fit the role. An interview with producer Wendy Finerman confirmed Streep was almost passed on as some thought the star did not have the comedic timing to win over audiences.
Finerman, speaking on the Hollywood Gold podcast, said: “Meryl, people thought we were crazy. I mean, I had people call me up and say, ‘Are you out of your mind? She’s never been funny a day in her life.’ She has been funny and they were wrong, but this was clearly a different kind of world for her.”
Though Streep had stunned audiences prior to her appearance in The Devil Wears Prada, she only had a few comedy credits to her name. She went on to win a Golden Globe for her performance in the film while fans of the movie were left praising Streep’s performance in one scene in particular.
Fans of the film still maintain Streep deserved an Oscar win for her performance. The award that year went to Helen Mirren for The Queen.
One fan wrote: “One of the top performances that should’ve won an Oscar.” Another agreed, adding: “This scene deserved an Oscar.” A third wrote: “One of the most iconic scenes of cinema history.” Others shared they had memorised the scene as it had such an impact on them.
One person wrote: “Iconic. I used to have this memorized by heart.” Another wrote: “This scene is so funny cause although I can understand why the snicker irritated them, Andy didn’t even mean it in a bad way, she really didn’t see a difference.”
Andy, played by Angelina Jolie, joins Streep alongside Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt.
Tucci has since hinted there could be a sequel in the works, with fans long wanting a follow-up to The Devil Wears Prada. In an interview earlier this year, he said it could be a possibility. Tucci said : “I know they’re working on it.
“If it happens, I would be so happy, but I cannot give you any information. Otherwise, I’ll go to the actor’s prison or something. [The original] was one of the best experiences ever.”
Meryl Streep ‘nearly not cast’ in iconic role as producers said she’d ‘never been funny’
It’s hard to imagine anyone else playing the iconic role that Meryl Streep brought to life on the big screen, but according to recent reports, the legendary actress was nearly passed over for the part because producers didn’t think she was funny enough.
Streep, known for her incredible range and dramatic performances, apparently faced doubts from the producers of the film who were concerned that she wouldn’t be able to pull off the comedic elements of the role. In fact, they reportedly told her that she had “never been funny” in her previous work.
Thankfully, Streep proved them wrong and went on to deliver a hilarious and unforgettable performance that solidified her status as one of the greatest actors of our time. The role became one of her most iconic and beloved performances, showcasing her versatility and talent as an actress.
This just goes to show that even the most talented actors face doubt and criticism, but it’s their ability to rise above it and prove their detractors wrong that truly sets them apart. Meryl Streep’s incredible talent and dedication to her craft have made her a force to be reckoned with in Hollywood, and we can’t wait to see what she does next.
