Walton Goggins & Scarlett Johansson To Close Out ‘SNL’ Season 50


Saturday Night Live has unveiled its closers for its 50th season.

Walton Goggins and Scarlett Johansson will host the final two shows of the season. Goggins will host on May 10 and Johansson will return on May 17, the series finale.

It comes as Quinta Brunson is set to host on May 3 with Benson Boone as musical guest.

Goggins, fresh from the success of the third season of HBO’s The White Lotus, is making his SNL debut. He will be joined by Arcade Fire as musical guest. The band are releasing their new album, Pink Elephant, on May 9. They have appeared five times before.

Johansson, who is married to Weekend Update’s Colin Jost, is returning for the seventh time as host. She made her debut in January 2006 and returned in April 2007, November 2010, May 2015, March 2017 and December 2019. She has also made a number of cameos, including earlier this month as Ivanka Trump in The White POTUS sketch.

She also appeared during SNL50. Johansson is ostensibly there to promoted Jurassic World Rebirth, which comes out on July 2, but in case her husband decides to leave the show at the end of the season, which, as always, has been speculated online, it would be nice to have family around to say goodbye.

Johansson will be joined by Bad Bunny as musical guest. He was previously musical guest in February 2021 and appeared as host and musical guest in October 2023.

Saturday Night Live is produced in association with Broadway Video. The creator and executive producer is Lorne Michaels.
