SNL Sets Adam Driver and Olivia Rodrigo as Host and Musical Guest Followed by Kate McKinnon and Billie Eilish

Adam Driver will host “Saturday Night Live” on Dec. 9, joined by Olivia Rodrigo as musical guest, while the Dec. 16 episode will feature host Kate McKinnon and musical guest Billie Eilish.

The Dec. 9 episode will mark Adam Driver’s fourth time hosting “SNL“; he previously appeared on the late night show in 2016, 2018 and 2020. He can soon be seen playing Enzo Ferrari in the Michael Mann-directed biopic “Ferrari,” which hits theaters on Dec. 25.

Rodrigo, who first performed on “SNL” in 2021, recently picked up six Grammy nominations for “Guts,” her second album, which she will take on a world tour beginning in 2024.

McKinnon will make her “SNL” hosting debut on Dec. 16, a milestone often taken on by former cast members of the show. She left “SNL” in 2022 after working on the show for 10 years, during which she was nominated for 10 Emmys, winning two. Earlier this year, she appeared in Warner Bros.’ “Barbie” movie, playing Weird Barbie.

Eilish returns to “SNL” for the third time after first serving as musical guest in 2019 and pulling double duty as both host and guest in 2021. She wrote the “Barbie” song “What Was I Made For?,” which earned her five Grammy nominations, this year, along with another for best pop duo/group performance alongside Labrinth for “Never Felt So Alone.”
