Will Ferrell finally made it back from Norway.
The comic actor is returning to star in the General Motors Super Bowl commercial after appearing in the 2021 spot, which featured him bringing the electric Cadillac Lyriq to the Scandinavian country to "crush those lugers," who buy more electric vehicles per capita than anyone else.
This time around, he will be driving a variety of electric GM models through settings from Netflix shows and movies to promote the automaker's collaboration with the streaming service, which will feature its vehicles in several original productions.
GM will have nine all-electric models on sale across its brands in the U.S. by the end of 2023.

From there he heads into "The Mist" in a Chevrolet Blazer EV before visiting "Bridgerton" with a Cadillac Lyriq, but says not to expect seeing one on the 19th century-set show.
