Coldplay will reportedly perform at Super Bowl 50 in February, just after the release of their new album.
Reports from Us Weekly and The Wall Street Journal say that the group will perform, beating out one-time frontrunner Maroon 5 for the gig.
Us Weekly also claims that Bruno Mars, who performed at the 2013 Super Bowl, will take part and there will be other artists showing up during the 20-minute performance. A source also told that Beyonce is in talks to show up too, since she has a cameo on Coldplay’s new album.
Of course, the group is doing this to help the album, A Head Full Of Dreams, get some extra exposure. The album hits stores on Dec. 4 and will likely be followed by a major North American tour after the Super Bowl.
The NFL hasn’t officially announced the halftime act, but probably will during tonight’s Thursday Night Football game between the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings.
Super Bowl 50 is on Feb. 7 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Super Bowl XLIX's halftime show featured Katy Perry.
