Upcoming SNL Hosts: Who Is Hosting And Musical Guests For Season 44
Well, Chevy Chase might not be happy with Saturday Night Live anymore, but the show still has tons of fans who eagerly await news of the comedy staple, and Season 44 is already promising to deliver some surprises. We already know, for instance, that Alec Bladwin's lauded impression of President Trump will be back this season, but potentially not as frequently as before. This is also yet another season where longest-running cast member Kenan Thompson will add his unique brand of humor to weekly laugh fest, along with some players who have recently been upgraded to repertory status. Obviously, covering politics has been huge for SNL the past few seasons, but Leslie Jones, for one, would like to see the show cut back on that a bit, if possible, and bring the laughs with more old fashioned silliness whenever it can. If the Season 43 blooper reel is any indication, you can be sure that pretty much everyone involved in the new season will be able to do just that on a weekly basis. While I'm sure a good number of guest hosts have to deal with at least a bit of stage fright before hitting the live stage, they usually mange to pull off fantastic performances nonetheless. Because we're nearing the Season 44 premiere of Saturday Night Live, every fan wants to know who will be hosting the show and appearing as musical guest on a weekly basis. Luckily, we've got that for you, right here! November 3 - Jonah Hill With Musical Guest Maggie RogersJonah Hill will hit the SNL stage the first weekend of November. The Oscar nominated actor appears in the recent Netflix series Maniac with Emma Stone, and his directorial debut, Mid90s, is in theaters right now. Singer Maggie Rogers is making her first appearance on the show in support of her upcoming album "Heard It in a Past Life." November 10 - Liev Schreiber With Musical Guest Lil WayneActor Liev Schreiber is making his hosting debut on the comedy for the November 10 show. Schreiber stars in the Showtime drama Ray Donovan, which is currently in its sixth season. He'll be joined by musical guest Lil Wayne, who recently released his 12th album, "Tha Carter V." Recently AiredSeptember 29 - Adam Driver With Musical Guest Kanye WestThe Season 44 opener will have Kylo Ren himself, Adam Driver, once again step up as guest host. Driver first hosted SNL back in Season 41, which led to some rather well-known sketches that ended up going viral after his episode aired, so it's no big surprise that he's been asked to return. He most recently appeared in the Spike Lee film BlacKkKlansman, but has several projects in various state of production right now, including The Man Who Killed Don Quixote and Star Wars: Episode IX. Kanye West will make his sixth appearance as musical guest for the opening, with many assuming he's about to release Yeezus 2, even though that hasn't been confirmed yet.

Rapper Travis Scott will be appearing to promote his third studio album, "Astroworld," which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in August.
