Exclusive sneak-peek from the much-talked-about McDonalds commercial featuring Dwight Howard and LeBron James. For those who remember the 1993 version, this might look familiar. Tune in to CBS before the kickoff of Super Bowl XLIV to see the rest!

More information: NBA stars Dwight Howard and LeBron James, both former McDonalds All Americans, star in a remake of the iconic 1993 Super Bowl commercial The Showdown, which featured Hall-of-Famers Michael Jordan and Larry Bird in trick-shot competition for a Big Mac® sandwich wherein the first one to miss, watches the other one eat. The new commercial titled Check This pits James against Howard in their own unique take on the battle for a Big Mac. The TV ad also features the reappearance of Larry Bird. Joe Pytka, commercial director for McDonalds original 1993 Super Bowl spot, also filmed the latest remake. Check This was filmed in Indianapolis at Conseco Fieldhouse in early January, 2010.
