Timothée Chalamet has hosted Saturday Night Live before, but for him, the musical guest slot has remained a complete unknown — until now.
As announced Friday (Jan. 10), the actor will return to 30 Rock on Jan. 25 for his third time hosting the NBC comedy series, this time serving as his own musical guest. Chalamet is fresh off portraying one of music’s greatest living legends, Bob Dylan, in James Mangold’s biopic of the folk-rock star, A Complete Unknown. The Dune actor did all of his own vocals for the project.
Chalamet first appeared on SNL in 2020. Three years later, he hosted the program again, spawning one particularly memorable sketch in which he portrayed Troye Sivan in the form of a sleep-paralysis hallucination.

The news comes almost three months after the release of the Memphis rapper’s debut solo album, Glorious, which reached No. 5 on the Billboard 200. The project spawned the single “TGIF,” which peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100, Glo’s highest-reaching unaccompanied entry on the chart.
