This NFL season is about to wrap up with the Chiefs and the Eagles all set to play Super Bowl LIX. Or should we say, a rematch of the Super Bowl LVII? Of course, if the Chiefs end up winning the Super Bowl, then we can surely call it. But, here’s where things start getting interesting. After the Chiefs knocked out Josh Allen and his squad, Allen’s fiancée, Hailee Steinfeld, dropped the amazing news ahead of the Super Bowl. Any guesses?

Steinfeld has teamed up with pharmaceutical company Novartis to inspire women to put their breast health first in a brand-new, exclusive Super Bowl ad. Yep, you read that right. Your favorite ‘Kate Bishop‘ is encouraging women for their breast health. ” Let’s give breasts the attention they deserve most,” she urges in the ad. Besides Hailee Steinfeld, the ad also features comedian and breast cancer survivor Wanda Sykes.

The ad encourages women of all ages to understand the risk of breast cancer. And why not? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women in the US. “I, like so many people, know somebody that has been affected by breast cancer,” Steinfeld tells PEOPLE in an exclusive first look. According to her, this ad campaign is an opportunity to “help bring awareness to breast cancer and the importance of knowing your risk and prioritizing your breast health. [It] was something that was of the utmost importance to me personally. And something I consider a great honor to be a part of.”

The Super Bowl ad highlights YourAttentionPlease.com, a site dedicated to sharing important info about breast health and risk factors. And here’s the best part. It invites women from all walks of life to take a quiz to learn about their personal risks and schedule regular screenings. It’s one of the reasons why Steinfeld is so honored to be a part of the ad.

“It was so empowering to lean into the fact that there is such a fixation that society has created around women’s breasts — and taking that and using it in a way that changes the narrative and turns that attention on the more important aspect behind women’s breasts,” Steinfeld explains to PEOPLE. “And that is our breast health. Also encouraging people to do the simple task of going to yourattentionplease.com, taking an assessment, and understanding their body. And their risk and their history.”

What’s on Hailee Steinfeld’s bucket list?

Although Josh Allen and the Bills are out of the league, one thing’s for sure. Steinfeld is super excited for the Super Bowl, especially after being a part of the Super Bowl ad.

Hailee Steinfeld also revealed her must-have to enjoy the Super Bowl game. Any guess? “Nachos.” Plus, she also added, “I’m a big cookie gal. So as long as there’s, like, Super Bowl-themed cookies at the party, that’s a highlight for me.” Umm, as it appears, Hailee’s got her game face on—nachos, cookies, and all. She’s ready to enjoy the biggest game of the year.

Speaking of the biggest game of the year, Steinfeld couldn’t hide her excitement about being part of such a monumental event. “It’s such a massive event, and I’d be lying if I said a Super Bowl commercial wasn’t a bucket list experience for me,” Steinfeld says. “So this is really huge. I’m so honored and so proud to be a part of this. And have this be my first Super Bowl commercial.” Looks like she is having a double treat with the excitement of the game as well as being a part of such a massive event.
