    Animated characters stand on a brightly lit stage, divided into two groups, with a host in the center. They face an audience, under a "Battle of the Fans" sign, creating a competition atmosphere.

Zlatan Ibrahimović

Self

Swedish footballer Ibrahimović plays a fictional version of himself as he prepares for the All-Star Cup. Dominant on the pitch and extremely cocky, he’s confident he’ll be named the “All-Star Cup All-Star of All All-Stars of All Time,” but when he falls into Weird Al’s skill-stealing trap, he needs help from four of his biggest fans to get back on his feet.

Currently a striker for the Italian football club AC Milan, Ibrahimović is one of the most revered soccer players in the world, with more than 570 career goals. Ibrahimović co-wrote and plays himself as an adult in the 2021 biopic I Am Zlatan. He is also the subject of the 2015 documentary Becoming Zlatan …

Rapinoe captained the US Women's National Team in 2015 and 2019, leading two consecutive World Cup victories. She appeared in the 2021 documentary LFG about the US women’s team’s fight for equal pay and in the 2020 documentary Outraged about discrimination in professional soccer.

“Weird Al” Yankovic

Yankovic plays himself — as not only a musician but a highly respected brain surgeon and a secret mad scientist who also happens to be the mayor.  🤐 SPOILER ALERT 🤐 Yankovic hatches a kooky plan involving mutant slugs that can siphon talent from all the top soccer players and turn him into the All-Star Cup champion — that is, if Ibrahimović, Rapinoe and a group of soccer-loving, vermin-fighting teens don’t stop him first.

Yankovic has won five Grammy Awards and co-wrote and starred in the 1989 cult comedy UHF. He co-wrote the upcoming biopic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, starring Daniel Radcliffe as a young Weird Al. He has also done voice work and appeared on Netflix shows such as BoJack HorsemanLady Dynamite and Aunty Donna’s Big Ol’ House of Fun.

Fox Sports commentator Stone plays himself as the announcer at the All-Star Cup stadium. With dramatic flair, he gives the play-by-play at every match. Not even a ball to the face can mess with his composure.

Stone covers Major League Soccer, NCAA football and basketball and the Professional Bowlers Association for Fox Sports and is the host of Big Noon Kickoff, the network’s college football pregame show. He was previously a sportscaster for ESPN, covering the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
