Is “SNL” new tonight? Yes. NBC’s late night sketch comedy series returns on Saturday night with host and musical guest Dua Lipa. The entertainer previously served as the musical guest to Natalie Portman in 2018 and to Kristen Wiig in 2020, but this will be her first time as the host. In her “SNL” promo video (watch above), Dua teaches cast member Chloe Fineman how to be more like her so that Fineman can “do the performance” for her.
The regular cast members for “Saturday Night Live” Season 49 are, in credits order: Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner, James Austin Johnson, Punkie Johnson, Colin Jost, Ego Nwodim, Sarah Sherman, Kenan Thompson and Bowen Yang. The featured players are: Marcello Hernandez, Molly Kearney, Michael Longfellow, Chloe Troast and Devon Walker. In a move of solidarity, none of the cast members from last year’s strike-truncated 48th cycle have departed.

A big-screen adaptation of The Legend of Zelda is on the way. Nintendo is working with Sony Pictures Entertainment on the new Zelda project, following the $1 billion success of Universal’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie adaptation.
Sony will distribute the live-action flick, which will be helmed by Wes Ball, the man behind the Maze Runner trilogy. But did you know that way back in 2010, a tweet from the director showed off his amiable disposition when he admitted to not even harboring the hope that he’d spearhead the direction of a project as epic as The Legend of Zelda?

That being said, now that he is attached to the project as director, his “hope” is granted, and we can be confident that the eagerly anticipated live-action will live up to the hype.

Move over, Pete Davidson. “Beavis and Butt-Head” is officially the most popular YouTube clip of SNL’s current season.
The sketch, which features Mikey Day and host Ryan Gosling as two men who look strikingly like Beavis and Butt-Head, went viral for causing most of its cast break into laughter. Within a few days of its initial airing, it was already the most popular live sketch of SNL’s 49th season. But Davidson’s “I’m Just Pete,” a pre-taped parody of the Barbie movie’s “I’m Just Ken” had held on as top-performing moment of the year.
But as of this writing, “Beavis and Butt-Head” is now the most-viewed YouTube clip of SNL’s 49th season, with 13,541,000 views.
While that’s an impressive number of views, especially for a sketch that’s only three weeks old, ‘Beavis’ has a ways to go before it nears SNL’s most-viewed...

After a shortened 2022-23 season, Saturday Night Live returned a bit later than usual to kick off its 2023-24 run.
The writers strike affected both the end of last season and the start of season 49; the end of the labor action on Sept. 25 meant a mid-October start for SNL — with former castmember Pete Davidson hosting — rather than the late September or early October premiere the show usually has. (The cast is covered under a different SAG-AFTRA contract than the one actors are currently striking against, so they can perform without crossing picket lines.)
The show’s cast returned intact from last season, with James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman moving up from featured players to repertory players. Chloe Troast joined the cast as a featured player.

Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. are going their separate ways after being linked for some time. So, what’s the real reason behind the famous pair calling it quits?
The Kardashians Date Other Famous People
The Kardashian brand is associated with a lot of things. One of those things is dating other famous people. Whether it’s other socialites, actors, comedians, musicians, or athletes, all of the Kardashian siblings are known for dating other famous people.
While it’s true that every once in a while, a major celebrity dating an everyday civilian can work, that has never been the case with the Kardashians. Many of them are known for dating NBA players, for example. This is also true of the Jenners as well. So, in many ways, it’s a family trait.

Weathering an unusual path to theaters, Bill Skarsgård’s recently released Boy Kills World witnessed a rough start at the box office. With Lionsgate/Roadside distributing the film and Nthibah Pictures financing it, Moritz Mohr’s movie about a deaf and mute fighter named Boy, who vowed his family’s revenge, suffered a major blow during the opening weekend.
Bill Skarsgård as Boy in Moritz Mohr’s Boy Kills World
Kicking off with a rather slow opening, below its original $2M projections, Boy Kills World failed to impress audiences and critics. Hammerstone Studios producer Alex Lebovici grieved that despite a massive production budget and significant marketing, the movie failed to sustain. Meanwhile, fans on X appear to blame Studios for its failure.

Moritz Mohr’s debut feature Boy Kills World is probably the best of the action offerings people have witnessed in recent years. Released on April 26, the action movie starring Jessica Rothe and Bill Skarsgård follows the story of a deaf and mute orphan who seeks revenge for his family’s murder.
Jessica Rothe as June 27 in Boy Kills World (2024)
While the film majorly focused on Bill Skarsgård as the lead, Jessica Rothe stole eyes with her phenomenal action sequences as June 27, an enforcer working for the Van Der Koys. Certainly, Rothe’s role demanded her to go through extreme training to convincingly become the ultimate fighter in the film. The actress therefore revealed learning 17 forms of Martial Arts in preparation for her role.

A fundraiser launched Thursday for the crew member who remains hospitalized after the accident on set of the Amazon MGM Studios film “The Pickup” says the crew member is in the ICU with “extensive bodily injuries.”
A GoFundMe campaign launched by Sean Fisher identifies the injured crew member as Marvin Haven, a dolly grip who has worked in the industry for the past 26 years. His credits include “The Walking Dead,” “Avengers: Infinity War,” and “Red Notice.” At this writing, the campaign has raised over $30,000 of its $100,000 goal.
The posting detailed Haven’s injuries as including “broken ribs, multiple fractures in his neck and back, a shattered scapula, punctured lung, and a skull fracture which will require facial reconstructive surgery.” Initial reports in the AP described some of the injuries to other crew members as being limited to bruises and broken bones.

A cellphone video of the accident on the set of the Eddie Murphy film “The Pickup” reveals that an SUV and truck can be seen flipping over after veering off road.
The New York Times obtained the footage and shared it Wednesday after news broke that the accident on the set of the Amazon MGM Studios film hospitalized two people and injured several others. The New York Times now says at least half a dozen people who were inside the two cars were taken to the hospital. One remains hospitalized Wednesday after sustaining a back injury.
In the video (via Nyt), you can see an armored truck pulling up alongside an SUV and then swerving into it, leading the cars to drive off the road and into grass. But the armored truck then rolls on top of the SUV, with both vehicles fully flipping before landing upright. The video concludes...

Nielsen live-plus-seven-day data for Ryan Gosling’s Saturday Night Live episode has arrived, and the results are positive.
With Gosling as host, and Chris Stapleton as musical guest, the April 13, 2024 edition of SNL delivered 7,510,000 linear viewers. That represents the show’s largest total linear audience since Dec. 10, 2022, when Steve Martin and Martin Short were co-hosts, and Brandi Carlile was the musical guest. Additionally, the Gosling-led episode delivered 1,727,000 P18-49 linear viewers, the show’s largest P18-49 linear audience since Oct. 14, 2023, when Pete Davidson hosted the Season 49 premiere.
The Gosling-SNL story is even stronger if one takes into account episode viewing across digital platforms: 8.9 million total viewers and 2.64 million P18-49 viewers. Not only do the 8.9 million and 2.64 million represent season highs for the show, but the 8.9 million is SNL’s largest cross-platform audience since Dec. 11, 2021, when Billie Eilish was both the host and musical guest.

Several crew members were injured during filming of an action sequence on the set of “The Pickup” on Saturday.
In total, eight people were hospitalized after an armored truck crashed into a BMW SUV, and both vehicles flipped over, according to a statement from the Georgia State Patrol.
Among the injured was Marvin Haven, a dolly grip who suffered numerous fractures of his ribs, back, neck and skull, according to a GoFundMe set up to support his recovery.
The crash took place at the Stockmar Airport in Villa Rica, about 30 miles west of Atlanta. The armored vehicle, a Gmc C6, was supposed to chase the BMW and tap its back wheel area, using a “precision immobilization technique” to bring it to a halt.
But when the truck hit the SUV, its brush guard became entangled in the BMW’s wheel well, causing both vehicles to veer to the left and lose control,...

You’ll almost immediately feel the vibes through the first two acts of Moritz Mohr’s Boy Kills World. Mohr’s film is a bloody, vicious kick to the solar plexus. The script drives its foot into the wound and then keeps applying pressure, almost as a way to test the audience’s resolve.
That’s where Boy Kills World may come to a crossroads for its viewership. Either you will embrace the sudden acute aggression, pressing the foot on the pedal, or you will border on torture porn violence. Or be so turned off by it to the point of completely giving up on Mohr’s film.
As for me, I’ll take Mohr’s blood-spattering dose of glorious, gory, comic carnage that would make Jackson Pollack jealous.

Art the Clown is fast-becoming a new slasher icon. Though he's yet to star in a truly massive box office hit, his blood-drenched exploits in "Terrifier 2" went a long way towards building his reputation as the slasher killer of the modern age. Damien Leone, the creator of the franchise and director of the first two installments, has made a name for himself by going further than any Hollywood horror and depicting scenes of such utter depravity that audiences have reportedly struggled not to pass out.
2016's "Terrifier" went largely unnoticed, but is infamous among some horror fans for a scene in which one victim is strung upside down and essentially, shall we say, divided in two in a particularly unfortunate manner. "Terrifier 2" then arrived in 2022 with just as much, if not more ultra-violence, and proved to be almost too brutal for even seasoned horror fans. Despite the film's astonishing level of abject savagery,...

Bill Skarsgård has continued to to impress audiences over the years and has helped maintain the glorious reputation of the Skarsgård family alongside his father Stellan Skarsgård and brother Alexander Skarsgård. Fans mostly know him for his role as Pennywise the Clown in the two It movies. He also played the main antagonist in 2023’s John Wick: Chapter 4.

Skarsgård is gearing up for his leading role in the upcoming action film Boy Kills World. The film is co-produced by Sam Raimi and the makers of the film had a tough task while casting the main role of the Boy. It seems Skarsgård was not their original choice for the role, and Pete Davidson was considered initially, with the tone of the film also being completely different at the time.

The Transformers franchise has covered so much ground since hitting the big screen in 2007, including planet-eating monsters, dino-bots, and a slew of heavy-handed Michael Bay-approved explosions. Now, they’ve entered a new frontier, with the trailer for Transformers One becoming the first movie trailer to debut in space.
The event kicked off early this morning with a live-streamed countdown showing the one-hour journey into space. When the craft reached its peak above Earth at 125,000 feet, the trailer was revealed, with an introduction from its stars Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry.
As the origin story for the robots and beasts at the heart of the franchise, Transformers One is set to be the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie. Hemsworth and Henry are joined by Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, Laurence Fishburne, and Jon Hamm, and the project was executive produced by Steven Spielberg.

After making a 36-second cameo appearance on last week’s Saturday Night Live, Ryan Gosling returned to host the show for the third time in his career. The Fall Guy star’s screen time of just over 26 minutes is the fifth highest for a Season 49 host, behind those of Bad Bunny, Shane Gillis, Pete Davidson and Ramy Youssef.
Scroll down to see how Gosling stacked up against each of the show’s named performers, including musical guest Chris Stapleton and former cast member Kate McKinnon. Note that our screen time data is calculated using a method that prioritizes face time, meaning that any contiguous (off-screen but in-scene) moments and practically all partial body appearances do not count. Screen time in the show’s opening credits, bumpers and goodnights are not included, nor do those portions factor into our assessment of the episode’s total running time.

Cue the Linkin Park song and get ready to roll out, because the Autobots are back, and this time they're bringing friends. The prophecy is finally fulfilled, and we are getting the much-promised Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover teased in the final moments of "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts."
The news was formally unveiled during Paramount Pictures' presentation at CinemaCon 2024, where /Film's own Ryan Scott witnessed the announcement of the union between the two titanic franchises.
This was, if nothing else, anticipated by fans. "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts" helmer Steven Caple, Jr., who previously promised the next chapter in the franchise would bring the Maximals, Autobots, and Joes together, is expected to return to the director's chair, although there's no news yet about which (if any) human cast members will also be back.

Ryan Gosling is hosting Saturday Night Live on April 13 and is seemingly nervous about meeting musical guest Chris Stapleton.
In a preview for this week’s episode of the NBC sketch show, Gosling is seen practicing how he will introduce himself to Stapleton. Gosling is sporting a Stapleton t-shirt and holding the singer’s headshot while knocking on Stapleton’s room at Studio 8H.
“Mr. Stapleton, big fan, love your music,” Gosling says in the preview. “Nah, it’s stupid.”
Gosling tries another line, saying, “Yo Chris! One for the gram?” as he takes out his mobile device to take a selfie with the singer.
The Barbie actor finally gets the courage to open Stapleton’s room. Gosling sees Stapleton’s cowboy hat and can’t resist the temptation to sport it and take on his persona.

After serving the entertainment industry for more than a decade, Margot Robbie finally found astronomical success in Hollywood, following her appearances in The Wolf of Wall Street and Barbie. While the two iconic movies helped her land a spot among the highest-paid actresses, Robbie gained this phenomenal success after weathering a fair share of box office flops.

First up for development on Jewelbox’s slate is Poetic License, which will mark Apatow’s feature directorial debut. Written by Raffi Donatich, the film watches as two inseparable best friends, Sam and Ari, start to unravel as they compete for the affection of Liz,...

It's always a thrill when a former "Saturday Night Live" cast member comes back to Studio 8H to host the late night sketch comedy show. That's especially true when it's a cast member as beloved as Kristen Wiig. That last time the "Bridesmaids" star hosted "SNL" was in December 2020, and it just so happens the best sketch of the night was a new holiday favorite where she plays a mother who gets a robe for Christmas while the rest of the family gets a plethora of better gifts. However, since Kristen Wiig was hosting "SNL" for a fifth time this past weekend, she got a different robe. And she wasn't the only one.
While it's become customary for newly inducted Five Timers Club hosts to get monologue bits that bring back some legendary hosts like Steve Martin and Tom Hanks, it's not always logistically possible to make it a star-studded affair.

A star-studded group of veteran “Saturday Night Live” guest hosts were on hand this evening to welcome Kristen Wiig into the “Five-Timers Club.” But much to Wiig’s chagrin, most of them haven’t matched her feat of actually hosting “SNL” five times.
The former “Saturday Night Live” cast member made her fifth appearance as host — having previously hit the stage in 2013, 2016 and twice in 2020.
The stolen “SNL” valor actually began with a legit five-timer: Paul Rudd, on hand to welcome her from the audience..
“As a former cast member, it is very special,” Wiig said. “I’m really excited about getting my jacket tonight… they don’t just hand the jackets off to anyone.”
Well, not quite. Soon more stars came out: Matt Damon, Jon Hamm, Martin Short, Will Forte, Fred Armisen, Martin Short and Ryan Gosling. None of whom haven actually hosted five times yet.

Lorne Michaels is an expert at celebrating the legacy of “Saturday Night Live.” The show’s creator has produced variety specials for the NBC program’s 15th anniversary, 25th anniversary and 40th anniversary, so the upcoming 50th season should have a highly entertaining spectacle. Nothing less than a three-hour event would be expected, but how else should “SNL” celebrate the golden anniversary season, which would begin in the autumn of 2024 and continue through May, 2025?
Here is our exciting, fun suggestion for a way to go above and beyond for the live special. Over the course of a 20-22 episode season, NBC would certainly have almost every episode featuring the current cast along with hot guest hosts and musical guests. However, for the other five episodes spread out over several months, devote an entire 90 minutes to each previous decade. Invite back the biggest cast members from a decade along with well-known guest hosts and music stars.

It’s a feat only 29 other SNL cast members have pulled off: With tonight’s episode of Saturday Night Live, Heidi Gardner has appeared in 500 sketches.
That’s according to longtime SNL statistician Mike Murray, who hosts The Saturday Night Network’s weekly SNL by the Numbers podcast. (Full disclosure: The Snn is LateNighter’s podcast partner.)
Tonight’s game show sketch “Couple Goals” was Gardner’s 500th sketch.
Gardner, who’s in her seventh SNL season, is only the 30th cast member to hit the 500 sketch milestone, an honor she shares with two other current cast members, Mikey Day and (of course) Kenan Thompson, whose 21 seasons on the show put him at the top of the list.
Lest you think there’s a direct correlation between one’s tenure on the show and their sketch count, there are quite a few SNL cast members who’ve made it to...

Uncoupled won’t get a second chance at season 2 after all. A year after Showtime rescued the series, they opted to cancel it before they ever filmed a scene. The series, which followed a 40-something man who finds himself surprisingly single and out of touch with the dating world, aired its first season on Netflix in July 2022. The streaming service provider dropped the series six months later.
‘Uncoupled’ won’t get a second chance after all
Showtime rescued Uncoupled after Netflix gave it the boot in January 2023. The network certainly seemed interested in putting in the work needed to bring season 2 of Uncoupled to the small-screen. Sadly, Showtime has changed its mind. The network has the same commitment issues as Michael’s love, Colin. According to Deadline, Showtime pulled the plug on the series after a ton of work had already been completed on season 2.

Bodies Bodies Bodies is a paranoid-riddled, slasher-adjacent thrill ride that leaves audiences guessing who the real killer might be.
The movie follows Amandla Stenberg’s Sophie and Maria Bakalova’s Bee, who join a group of friends at a remote vacation house to party out a big hurricane. Sadly, things go very poorly for everyone after they find Pete Davidson’s David with his throat slashed.

Colin Jost-Pete Davidson Staten Island Ferry Bar-Hotel-Restaurant Project Still Afloat, Says Partner
The Staten Island Ferry floating nightclub project of Colin Jost and Pete Davidson – the subject of at least one “guy who bought a boat” joke on Jost’s Weekend Update – might be a bit closer to setting sail, heavy emphasis on “might.”
In an interview with Curbed, Ron Castellano, the architect and partner of Davidson and Jost’s decommissioned ferry project, told Curbed this week that plans are still underway for what could be a $34 million renovation project that would turn the rusty ferry into a luxury oasis of bars, restaurants a maybe a hotel.
Jost and Davidson – famously Staten Islanders – rescue-purchased the soon-to-be junked vessel two years ago for just under $300,000, announcing plans for a floating entertainment vessel.
Since then, various media reports have suggested that the project was going no place fast, reports Castellano dismisses in the new interview.

Pete Davidson and Colin Jost’s decommissioned ferry boat may be docked silently in Staten Island right now, but the vessel is headed for a $34 million renovation that features multiple bars, restaurants and a hotel.
Ron Castellano, an architect and lesser known partner on Davidson and Jost’s ferry project, told Curbed this week that he’s still finalizing plans to remodel the inside of the group’s 1965 boat.
“I think right now, we have six bars and two venues operated separately or combined,” he said. “We have outdoor event space, we have restaurants — two restaurants. It’s a big boat, almost 300 feet long, 65,000 square feet.”
Castellano’s firm, Studio Castellano, lists the “JFK Ferry” as a project with a budget of $34 million. To Curbed, Castellano detailed plans for a furnished patio top deck, 24 hotel rooms with sundecks and two clubs spaced across the lower levels. He said the team...

Some concrete plans are actually starting to emerge for the decommissioned Staten Island ferry that Pete Davidson and Colin Jost bought back in 2022.
While the intent was to turn it into some kind of floating entertainment complex, for the past two years, the ferry has ostensibly just been sitting there. It’s been docked in Staten Island — where both Jost and Davidson grew up — and locals have reportedly said they haven’t seen anyone working on it.
Davidson even joked with Entertainment Tonight last June, “I have no idea what...
