Don Toliver will serve as the night’s musical guest. The episode will mark Seyfried’s “SNL” hosting debut. It will also see Toliver perform on “SNL” for the first time. The announcement was made live during the NBC sketch comedy series’ John Mulaney-hosted Nov. 14 episode. “SNL” will take a three-week break following Mulaney’s Season 52 installment before making its return in the first week of December. Seyfried’s visit to Studio 8H next month will, notably, make her “SNL” Season 52’s fourth first-time host to date. Jalen Brunson, Inde Navarrette and Druski have already made their “SNL” hosting debuts this season as well. Seyfried’s “SNL” announcement caps off what have turned into a busy few months for the actress. She has made headlines over the past month, in particular, for her role in directors Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder’s conversation-starting Elizabeth Holmes documentary “You Can See Everything.” In the doc, Seyfried steps back into her “Dropout” role by playing Holmes in dramatized reenactments of scenes that were not captured on camera by Fielder and Oppenheim. She also emerges over the course of the film as a confrontational opponent to Holmes’ divisive partner, Billy Evans. An argument between the two is at the center of one of the film’s most widely-discussed scenes. Saturday night’s “SNL” announcement comes the same week Seyfried broke her silence regarding “You Can See Everything” for the first time in a wide-ranging interview with Fielder and Oppenheim. Three days after that interview was published, Seyfried was announced as the next “SNL” host. More to come…
