Nate Bargatze is set to make his hosting debut on Saturday Night Live.
With no end in sight to the SAG-AFTRA strike, Saturday Night Live is continuing to turn to non-actors to host the live-sketch comedy. Tuesday afternoon, SNL officials announced Nate Bargatze as one of the next hosts of the show. Bargatze will host on the October 28th episode, officially making his hosting debut at 30 Rock.
A stand-up comedian, Bargatze has found big-time success thanks to advancements in digital media. Alongside the comedian, the Foo Fighters will appear as musical guest. The episode will be the band's ninth time taking the stage at Studio 8H, and will likely be helping promote their latest album, But Here We Are, which came out earlier this summer.
Who is in the Saturday Night Live cast?Cast members for Saturday Night Live season 49 include almost the entire cast from season 48 of SNL. Returning stars include Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner, James Austin Johnson, Punkie Johnson, Colin Jost, Ego Nwodim, Sarah Sherman, Kenan Thompson, and Bowen Yang.
New Saturday Night Live HostsWith the SAG-AFTRA Strike still without a resolution, Saturday Night Live is unable to tap actors to host new episodes since previously they would only appear on the series to promote some new work . As a result comedians and musicians have been the only hosts confirmed for Saturday Night Live season 49 with Pete Davidson, Bad Bunny, and Nate Bargatze taking the spotlight for the first three episodes.
Saturday Night Live Season 49 is ongoing now with new episodes airing on both NBC and Peacock, starting Saturdays at 11:30 PM ET. All 48 seasons of Saturday Night Live are also now streaming on Peacock.
