Uncle Sam — aka Samuel L. Jackson — nearly stole the Super Bowl halftime show. The “Pulp Fiction” actor was Kendrick Lamar’s special guest during the Super Bowl halftime show. Dressed in patriotic red, white and blue, Jackson introduced the show, exclaiming “this is the great American game.”

Kendrick Lamar teased a big surprise for his Super Bowl LIX halftime show, and that included the show being introduced and narrated in parts by Samuel L. Jackson. Jackson appeared in character as 'Uncle Sam.

In a surprise opening to Kendrick Lamar's halftime performance during Super Bowl LIX, Samuel L. Jackson went front and center dressed as Uncle Sam before introducing Lamar to the stage. In line with the theme of "The Great American Game," Jackson was dressed in full red, white and blue garb to introduce the act and then play a role within it.

The Super Bowl halftime show is one of the biggest musical events in the world, with about 1 out of every 3 Americans tuning in.

Samuel L. Jackson was a part of Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime show, where he performed as “Uncle Sam” and was the host throughout the 12 minutes. After the show, Jackson went on social media and shared a picture of him and Lamar backstage.

From PlayStation references to America's political divide, Serena's Crip walk to that "Gloria" jacket, here's a look at what the Grammy and Pulitzer-winning rapper's show was really saying.

Drake got dissed in "Not Like Us," Jackson played Uncle Sam as President Trump looked on, and Serena Williams danced in a surprise cameo.

He teased “Not Like Us” twice before finally performing the first verse of the track that concludes with the popular “A minorrrr!” line — a lyric heard and sung throughout the announced New Orleans crowd of 65,719 at Caesars Superdome. As expected, Lamar changed some of the lyrics for television, but the message was clear.

With the biggest captive audience of his career, Lamar's performance conjures a medley of hits that spans his 15-year discography.
