Commercials slated to air during the 2017 Super Bowl

NEW YORK, Feb 2 (Reuters) - The 51st edition of the Super Bowl will kick off on Sunday from Houston's NRG Stadium, pitting the New England Patriots against the Atlanta Falcons. The National Football League's championship game is annually the most-watched television program in the United States, with last year's game commanding 111.9 million viewers.

That massive audience makes the Super Bowl a prime spot for advertisers, who are paying Twenty-First Century Fox Inc as much as $5 million for a 30-second spot. The game will air on U.S. broadcast channel Fox.

Below are previews of some of the commercials that will run during the Super Bowl:

The Pennsylvania-based building materials supply company released a 90-second version of their ad, which made waves after Fox rejected their initial idea that reportedly featured immigrants being blocks by a wall.
