Adam Driver to host SNL
Coming off of the success of
Star Wars: The Force Awakens, NBC has booked new bad guy Kylo Ren, Adam Driver, as a host for
Saturday Night Live in the new year, according to
TVLine.
Adam Driver will not only be promoting
Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but also the new season of HBO’s
Girls, which premieres February 21.
This is the first time Adam Driver will be hosting the sketch comedy series and fans are already hoping for a
Star Wars sketch.
Driver has had a busy year with the release of
Star Wars, the latest season of
Girls and even a guest spot on
The Simpsons.
Throughout his career, Driver has appeared in a variety of roles, from villains to comedic roles to dramatic characters so his range will hopefully be perfect for whatever
Saturday Night Live writers throw his way.
The musical guest has yet to be announced, but Driver’s episode will air January 16 on NBC.
