Will Forte Set to Make Saturday Night Live Hosting Debut

It seemed like Will Forte never looked back once he departed Saturday Night Live more than a decade ago, but that changes with his upcoming hosting debut. NBC has announced that the MacGruber star will be hosting the Jan. 22 edition of the sketch comedy series with Måneskin serving as the musical guest. This also marks Måneskin’s first appearance on the program.

Longtime viewers of Saturday Night Live will remember that Forte spent many years as one of the show’s funniest performers. He came onto the series in 2002 and spent about eight years there, ultimately walking away in 2010. Forte’s MacGruber character is what he is particularly known for from his SNL run, and it’s a role that he’s revisiting on Peacock.
