Timothée Chalamet Returns to Saturday Night Live with Double Duty as Host and Musical Guest; Here’s All You Need To Know

On January 25th, Timothée Chalamet, who has been nominated for an Oscar, will take the helm of Saturday Night Live (SNL). Notably, this isn’t his first time hosting; he previously did so in December 2020 and again in November 2023. Furthermore, he’ll also be gracing the stage as the musical guest – a unique distinction, as it marks the first time in 30 years that a non-professional singer has done so.

Timothée Chalamet has been involved in popular SNL skits like the Rap Roundtable with Pete Davidson, Museum of Hip-Hop Panel, and portrayed Troye Sivan in the past. This time around, he could potentially draw from his past experiences, as he played Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown, for which he received nominations for musical roles at the 2025 Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards.

The actor from ‘Little Women’, known for his versatility, perfected both singing and playing the guitar and harmonica during the preparation for the Dylan biopic. Fans eagerly anticipate him to serenade Studio 8H with Dylan’s legendary tunes.

Timothée Chalamet’s highly praised movie, helmed by James Mangold, has been garnering fantastic feedback and features Elle Fanning as well. The synopsis of the film goes like this: “In 1961, a then-unknown 19-year-old Bob Dylan journeys to New York City with his guitar, forming connections with musical legends during his rapid ascent to fame, reaching its peak with an influential performance that resonates globally.

As I eagerly anticipate Timothée Chalamet’s upcoming appearance on the live sketch comedy show, it’s exciting to note that rising star GloRilla, aged 25, is about to make her SNL debut this coming Saturday, January 18th. She’s been nominated for two Grammys for her smash hit Yeah Glo!, making this a significant milestone in her career. I can hardly wait!

Saturday Night Live airs on Saturday, January 18, 2025, on NBC.
