Three-time host Lopez will be opening December with musical guest DaBaby, making his SNL debut. Johansson, who recently confirmed her engagement to SNL “Weekend Update” co-anchor Colin Jost, makes her sixth appearance as the show’s host, and joining her is ex-One Directioner Niall Horan, making his SNL debut as the musical guest for the episode. The Christmas episode will be hosted by comedian Eddie Murphy, who mostly recently took on the role of Rudy Ray Moore in Netflix’s blaxploitation biopic Dolemite is My Name, and the musical guest of the evening is no other than Lizzo herself.
In the meantime, entertain yourself with the promo for Will Ferrell’s Thanksgiving episode (and fifth time hosting the show!), coming up this Saturday, Nov. 23.
