LOS ANGELES, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Viewers who tuned in to The Late Late Show after the Super Bowl were in for another epic sports special.

Anna Kendrick, Zac Efron, and Adam Devine teamed up with show host James Corden to reenact memorable scenes from classic sports films of the past 40 years.

The segment, entitled "History of Sports in 7 Minutes," had the group running on and off a blue screen set while dressing up (and down) for the montage of novel moments from movies like The Karate Kid, The Sandlot, Seabiscuit, and all four Rocky Movies.

Entertainment Weekly, reported that the montage was also a cue to promote Kendrick, Efron, and Devine's new movie Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates set to debut this summer, with the movie trailer premiering right after the segment.

The video was riddled with unforgettable funny moments which include Efron dropping a High School Musical reference amid a Hoosiers reenactment, Corden practically puking after swallowing a raw egg while portraying Rocky Balboa, and Kendrick going in a Sandra Bullock impersonation from the The Blind Side. All four of the stars even came together for a reprise of the classic "Brr! It's Cold In Here" cheer from Bring It On with Efron and Corden donning long blond wigs, cheer skirts and pom-poms.
