Aubrey Plaza And Michael B. Jordan To Host SNL: January 6 (UPI) — The first episode of the new year of Saturday Night Live featured an announcement about the show’s next two hosts. The show, which is currently in its 48th season, will have two new hosts for its episodes airing on January 21 and 28.
Who Will Take Charge Of The Show Starting January 21?
Aubrey Plaza, who currently plays in the second season of The White Lotus on HBO and in the film Emily, the Criminal, will take the helm of the show beginning on January 21. The nominee for the Golden Globe will make an appearance alongside musical guest Sam Smith; this will be Smith’s third time making an appearance.
