Timothée Chalamet is gearing up for a big night on Saturday Night Live.
The star of Dune and Call Me By Your Name will not only host the January 25 episode but also take on the role of musical guest. This announcement follows Chalamet’s recent Golden Globe nomination for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in the film A Complete Unknown.
This marks Chalamet’s third time hosting SNL but his first as the musical performer. A Complete Unknown, which hit theaters over Christmas, has been widely praised by critics, with Chalamet earning accolades for his compelling take on Dylan.
Before Chalamet’s turn, comedian Dave Chappelle is set to host SNL for the fourth time on January 18, with rising star GloRilla making her debut as the musical guest.
Chappelle’s latest comedy special, The Dreamer, is up for a Grammy for Best Comedy Album, while GloRilla has received two Grammy nominations for her hit single “Yeah Glo!” Notably, Chappelle won an Emmy for hosting SNL back in 2021.
This news arrives as SNL gears up to celebrate its 50th anniversary on NBC. The festivities include a weekend of programming that concludes with the live primetime special SNL50: The Anniversary Special on February 16.
Ahead of that, the four-part docuseries SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night premieres on Peacock on January 16, followed by NBC’s debut of Ladies & Gentlemen… 50 Years of SNL Music on January 27.
