The Super Bowl is getting a little more super, as Beyonce is expected to join Coldplay onstage during halftime of the NFL’s championship game, according to media reports.

Entertainment Tonight has confirmed that Queen Bey will make an appearance — likely joining Coldplay for “Hymn for the Weekend,” considering she’s featured on that track from the band’s latest album.

Representatives for Beyonce and the NFL did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

“Uptown Funk” singer Bruno Mars will also join Coldplay during the Super Bowl after headlining the halftime show in 2014. Beyonce is no stranger to the world’s biggest stage either, as she quarterbacked the 2013 halftime extravaganza.

Coldplay’s artistic director Phil Harvey previously hinted there would be “special guests” involved in the band’s halftime show — and there may even be one more musical act joining Beyonce and Bruno Mars.

Super Bowl 50 kicks off live on CBS on the evening of Sunday, Feb. 7, 2016, from Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
