From their careers to their hobbies and even their 'nepo baby' status–no joke was off-limits.

Pepsi kicked off the game day celebrations a little early, sharing a preview of its upcoming Super Bowl commercials featuring celebrated stars Ben Stiller and Steve Martinand you just have to see them.

In a bit of an unconventional style, the brand is set to release two commercials promoting its zero-calorie, sugar-free soda and co-starring the highly-applauded actors. But, in the clips Pepsi previewed today, the two comedians spent the majority of the time they had in front of the camera roasting each other.

The first teaser kicked off with a relatively standard introduction from Stiller, 57, who tries to introduce himself as an actor before Martin, 77, cuts him off, joking, "and I'm better actor, Steve Martin."

"What?" Stiller said, dumbfounded. To which Martin remarked, "Well, you're a comic actor. That's not really acting."

The two then spun out into a diss-off, calling each other names and making digs at each other's acting abilities.

"You couldn't act your way out of a paper bag," Stiller contended. "You couldn't act your way into the paper bag that I was acting in," Martin quipped.

The playful jabs at each other's careers continued well through the second clip, with Martin asserting that Stiller was "acting like he's not intimidated" to be standing next to him, to which Stiller replied, "and Steve's acting like he's not lucky to be here."

After some back and forth, which included Martin trolling Stiller by calling him a "nepo baby" and Stiller teasing his counterpart for his hobby of playing the banjo, the two seem to make amends.

"You know what, Steve? I actually don't want to do this because I'm a huge fan of yours," the Zoolander star suggested, to which Martin replied, "Honestly, I'm a big fan of yours."

"Really?" Stiller questioned. "I was acting," the Only Murders in the Building star mocked.

Shortly after Pepsi shared the teasers, fans took delight in what they called a "definitely real" performance. And, while we're uncertain how much of the content was scripted, we wouldn't put it past these two comedians to successfully improv some of their one-liners.

The full version of each commercial is set to premiere during Super Bowl LVII, between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, on Sunday, Feb. 12.
