The 17th episode of the 49th season of "Saturday Night Live" will air on April 13 and its host is a 2024 Academy Award nominee, who delivered a colorful, epic Oscar night performance of his most recent film's famous song.
Actor Ryan Gosling is slated to host "SNL" on Saturday, NBC announced Tuesday in a short promo video.
The "Barbie" star's appearance marks his third hosting gig for the Emmy-winning late-night show.
"I haven't felt this excited since I saved jazz," Gosling said in the promo, a throwback to when he appeared in the show's opening monologue in October 2017 speaking about the 2016 film, "La La Land." Gosling stared alongside Emma Stone in the musical movie.
Review:In pivotal election year, 'SNL' should be great. It's only mid.
Last month, the actor and singer drew praise when he performed the nominated “Barbie” tune, “I’m Just Ken,” live during the Oscars. The song was one of two "Barbie" tracks nominated for best original song at the Academy Awards, with the other being Billie Eilish's "What Was I Made For?"

The long-time network comedy show's host last week was comedian and "SNL" alum Kristen Wiig, who entertained viewers alongside the musical guest, English singer and songwriter Raye.
(No, Gosling is not this week's musical guest for the show too.)
