Emma Stone Will Be the Host of ‘Saturday Night Live’ for the Fifth Time


Following the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike, Emma Stone will host Saturday Night Live for the sixth time.

The actress from Poor Things is expected to return to 30 Rock for the December 2 episode. Noah Kahan will perform as a musical guest.

Stone previously hosted SNL in 2010, 2011, 2016, 2019, and 2023, joining the ranks of Bill Murray, Steve Martin, Drew Barrymore, Tom Hanks, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken, Paul Rudd, Ben Affleck, Tina Fey, Scarlett Johansson, and others.

Pete Davidson returned to the stage for the season 49 premiere of Saturday Night Live. Following Davidson, the evening featured dual host-musical guest Bad Bunny and comic Nate Bargatze.

Since the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike, Saturday Night Live has brought in more recognizable personalities to host the show, after initially using non-actor hosts.

After the strike ended on November 10, Timothée Chalamet was the first A-lister to take over as Season 49 host on November 11. The newest episode of Saturday Night Live was hosted by Jason Momoa.
