Saturday Night Live is returning to our small screens this weekend after a brief break, and the hosts for the first two March shows have been announced. The Emmy-nominated actress Sydney Sweeney and the Oscar nominee Josh Brolin have been tapped to host the popular sketch comedy series in March.

Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney will make her SNL hosting debut on March 2, with Kacey Musgraves serving as the musical guest. She’s currently doing promo for her new film Madame Web, and she’s following in the footsteps of her co-star Dakota Johnson, who hosted the show back in late January.

Unlike Sweeney, Josh Brolin isn’t a newcomer to SNL—he hosted the show twice in the past, in 2008 and 2012. He’ll hit that iconic stage again on March 9 alongside musical guest Ariana Grande, as a part of the promo for his upcoming film Dune: Part Two.

Saturday Night Live will return to NBC on February 24, with stand-up comedian Shane Gillis hosting the show alongside musical guest 21 Savage. He’s following in the footsteps of Saltburn’s Jacob Elordi, Madame Web’s Dakota Johnson, and The Bear’s Ayo Edebiri, who had the honor of hosting SNL since the start of 2024.
