Super Bowl LX is here, and Hollywood is ready for it. As the Seattle Seahawks prepare to get their shot at redemption in the Super Bowl 2026 against the New England Patriots, a notable rematch of 2015’s Super Bowl XLIX, quite a few celebrities from the entertainment industry will be living and dying with every down this Sunday, cheering for their respective teams.
In the stands and from social media, this duel is expected to be energised and supported by some of the most influential celebrities in Hollywood and the world, ranging from Chris Pratt and Will Ferrell to Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, all of whom just never seem to miss the opportunity to show their support for these two historic teams.

Chris Pratt might have been born in Minnesota, but his heart lies with the Seattle Seahawks – after all, his family did settle into a Seattle suburb in his formative years. Since then, the Guardians of the Galaxy star has practically been one of the biggest celebrities in the team’s Celebrity 12th Fan group.
This time around, though, Pratt is expected to be gracing his presence at Super Bowl LX for a very intriguing reason: A possible chance at redemption!
To jog your memory a bit, he lost a bet to his fellow superhero from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Chris Evans, who is also a pretty well-known Patriot back in 2015 (via CBS Sports). That said, could this be Pratt’s chance at redemption against his fellow namesake? Guess we’ll finally see!
2. Will Ferrell

Another Seahawks fan, Will Ferrell holds deeper ties with this team than one can expect: He’s friends with the team’s long-term coach, Pete Carroll, who has been gone for a few years, yes, with Mike Macdonald at the helm now, but that friendship is still what buoyed Ferrell’s NFL football fandom.
On a goofier note, the comedian even pranked his favorite team via Zoom call during the early COVID days as tight end Greg Olsen, a league veteran but a newcomer to the squad, who was there to “catch some balls.” (See the prank call on YouTube.) That means he’s likely to come to the field to support his team this year as well!
3. Mark Wahlberg

Fans are also expecting Mark Wahlberg to show up at the Super Bowl 2026, considering how he’s pretty much a moldable NFL fan, extending his support to teams such that it makes sense for business, which feels within character. After all, he was associated with the Philadelphia Eagles as well, as a result of his starring in Invincible.
But he’s also a significant fan of Tom Brady‘s former team, so don’t be surprised if you see him supporting the Patriots at this latest edition of the Super Bowl!
4. Jon Bon Jovi

Jon Bon Jovi, who is famously associated with his native New Jersey, has still aligned himself with the New England Patriots. That stands true even though New Jersey has not one but two professional football teams playing there: The New York Giants and the New York Jets.
Well, Bon Jovi is also pretty good friends with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who actually gifted the rocker two legit Super Bowl rings as a reward for his loyalty, so that’s that too (via SI). That said, could fans see this die-hard Patriot show up at Super Bowl LX? Hopefully, yes!
5. Matt Damon

Okay, this one was obvious. As famous as Matt Damon is in the entertainment industry for his acting, producing, and screenwriting prowess, he’s practically equally famed for his love for the Patriots, so the fandom might as well expect him to show up this time around as well (via the Grand Pinnacle Tribune).
And Damon being mentioned, fans must also remember some other honorable Patriots from Hollywood, like Conan O’Brien, John Krasinski, Elton John, Steven Tyler, and Bill Burr, to name a few. Sounds like the Patriots have quite a bit of star power lined up among their fandom!
6. Joel McHale

Though born in Rome, Italy, Joel McHale grew up on Mercer Island, Washington, and played football at the University of Washington as a walk-on tight end. That’s where his love for the game and the iconic blue and green-clad NFL team developed: He’s a hardcore Seahawk fan. (See him talking about it on Jimmy Kimmel Live!)
While McHale found his skills better at comedy than at football, he never stopped keeping up with and supporting the game, so fans could likely see him show up this year to support Washington state’s NFL team as well.
7. Maria Menounos

Well, some fans might not have expected this one, but the majority keeping up with the actress must already know that Maria Menounos is actually a die-hard Patriot. A Massachusetts-born, she is often seen seated at the Patriots’ Gillette Stadium.
Iconically enough, back when the Patriots lost to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl in 2012, she had to wear a Giants bikini in Times Square as a result of a lost bet – and yes, we are talking in February in New York City (see the coverage from the NFL).
8. Rainn Wilson

Actor Rainn Wilson has also been an attendee of the University of Washington and is from Seattle himself. In fact, he has made several appearances on behalf of his team (via Seahawks.com). As such, it’s safe to say that he’s an avid fan of Seahawks.
Well, for what it’s worth, that’s more than enough to have fans convinced about Wilson’s presence at Super Bowl LX!
9. Ben Affleck

Last and hardly the least, Ben Affleck. Just like his close pal Matt Damon, with whom he has been friends since eternity, the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice actor is also a pretty hardcore Patriot – another star-studded celebrity from Hollywood on the New England Patriots‘ side.
Will he show up at this year’s Super Bowl performance, though? Of course, his presence is highly anticipated, though not guaranteed, so fans will have to tune in to the show to know for sure.
What do you think about all these Seahawks and Patriots fans from Hollywood who might show up to Super Bowl LX? Do you have any more names you might want to add to this list? More importantly, which team are you supporting this time around? Make sure to share with us in the comments section below!
