Saturday Night Live has revealed its first guests for 2025—with one shocking viewers.
Actor Timothee Chalamet will take the stage on Jan. 25 not only as host, but also as a musical guest.
Although the details of the performance weren’t given away, Chalamet has starred in two films that showcased his singing skills: 2023’s Wonka, and 2024’s A Complete Unknown.
The latter film featured the actor’s portrayal of Bob Dylan, where he recorded a soundtrack and performed 40 songs live with guitar and harmonica.
He also starred in an SNL skit in Dec. 2020 where he sang “Tiny Horse,” a scene that became a fan favorite.
