Tua is showing off his acting chops.
In a humorous two-minute ad for Super Bowl LVIII, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa stars alongside Sir Patrick Stewart, Drew Barrymore, Creed, and iconic TV characters for Paramount+. The ad unfolds at ‘Paramount Mountain,’ where the stakes are comically high.
Tagovailoa attempts to throw a rope to the top of a giant rock face but falls short. Commenting on his unsuccessful attempt, he humorously states, ‘If it were a football, I’d be able to reach the top.’ Sir Patrick Stewart suggests throwing ‘Arnold’ (from ‘Hey Arnold!’) with a football-shaped head.
Tua refuses, leading to a humorous response from Stewart, who throws Arnold himself after revealing a retro football uniform.

As the characters argue, the band Creed appears beneath the rock face, singing their hit ‘Higher’ as Stewart throws Arnold. The adapted lyrics include the line, ‘I just threw him higher. To a place where won’t freeze.’
Unfortunately, Arnold hits the rock face, prompting Stewart to humorously mention someone made of pig skin, turning attention to Peppa Pig, who concludes the ad with a simple ‘Oh dear.’
