Philadelphia, PA

Comcast’s Xfinity has reunited comedy icons Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn with director David Dobkin to kick off the fall sports season and launch the best destination for sports viewing and streaming.

Nearly 20 years after Wedding Crashers first premiered in theaters, the duo is back together – this time as best friends and sports rivals in a campaign that showcases Xfinity’s unmatched WiFi and entertainment experience that transforms living rooms into front-row seats for every matchup, every league, and every unforgettable play.

Vaughn and Wilson return as the ultimate sports fans celebrating big rivalries, non-stop action, and the thrill of watching all of it without the hassle of jumping from channel to channel or platform to platform. Today, more than 70 percent of all Internet traffic is driven by streaming live sports and entertainment. Whether watching all the action on the field, or streaming in 4K on multiple devices, Xfinity delivers customers a fast, reliable Internet experience with multi-gig speeds, ultra-low lag, wall-to-wall WiFi and the capacity to connect hundreds of devices in the home.

Sports are scattered across dozens of networks and streaming services. It’s a headache for fans. Xfinity makes the sports viewing experience simple, seamless, and unforgettable.

“Nobody else gives fans a single destination for every game, WiFi that streams live sports over a connection with ultra-low lag, and powerful features like Multiview to keep every fan in the action from multiple live games at once. If you call yourself a sports fan, you need Xfinity,” said Jon Gieselman, Chief Growth Officer, Connectivity & Platforms, Comcast.

The Xfinity ad, which was created in partnership with advertising agency Preacher, premieres tomorrow during the NFL Kickoff Game – the Cowboys vs. the Eagles – one of football’s most storied rivalries. The Vaughn/Wilson duo will continue to star in a series of spots rolling out this fall and into 2026.

The ads were directed by Ridley Scott Associates’ David Dobkin, and mark a first-time reunion for the director working with both actors since the blockbuster comedy hit Wedding Crashers. Dobkin said, “Vince and Owen’s chemistry remain magic. And they constantly push each other which I think is always necessary if you want to make something really good and really fresh, I think the Xfinity sports experience and this campaign is exactly that.”
