Guardians of the Galaxy's Chris Pratt is set to host the season debut for Saturday Night Live with Ariana Grande.
To go from Star-Lord to the star of Saturday Night Live, Guardians of the Galaxy’s Chris Pratt has been having a terrific year. Once the plucky guy married to Aubrey Plaza on Parks and Rec, Pratt is returning to NBC as a bonafide movie star first from his voice work in February’s The Lego Movie, and then as the star of Guy Gunn’s groovy Marvel superhero movie.
Also set to star in Universal Pictures’ Jurassic World next summer (which NBC is affiliated with), Pratt seems like a good choice to launch SNL’s 39th season. Maybe he has a skit about dinosaurs chasing him up his sleeve? Certainly red and green women.
Pratt will be joined by musical guest Ariana Grande. The following week will feature Sarah Silverman as host with musical guest Maroon 5.
Saturday Night Live returns on September 27th at 11:30pm EST.
