‘SNL’ season 49 will begin on October 14. Find out who’s going to be in the cast here!
With the WGA writers’ strike ended, Saturday Night Live is set to return for its 49th season on Saturday, October 14, after season 48 was cut short. The new season is set to premiere with Pete Davidson making his return as host with Ice Spice as the musical guest.
Other than Pete’s return as a host, fans are looking forward to seeing what familiar and new faces will be featured from Studio 8H at 30 Rock. Before season 48, the cast saw the largest exodus since 1995 with eight people announcing that they’d be going. Cecily Strong left in the middle of season 48. For season 49, there has only been one new cast member announced Chloe Troast.
