"SNL" is kicking off 2026 right.
The sketch show on Wednesday unveiled the hosts and musical guests who are headed to Studio 8H for a series of three consecutive episodes this month. As previously announced, "Stranger Things" star Finn Wolfhard will host the Jan. 17 episode with musical guest A$AP Rocky.
A week later, Teyana Taylor will make her "SNL" hosting debut amid the Oscar campaign for her movie "One Battle After Another." Geese will be the musical guest during her episode.
The following week, the Jan. 31 episode will be hosted by Alexander Skarsgård with musical guest Cardi B. This will also be the "SNL" hosting debut for Skarsgård, who stars in the upcoming Charli XCX film "The Moment." Cardi B will be serving as musical guest for the second time, coming off the September release of her latest album "Am I the Drama?"
"SNL" is returning in January after a winter finale in December hosted by Ariana Grande, which featured the departure of longtime cast member Bowen Yang after seven seasons. Cher served as musical guest for the episode, and both she and Grande joined Yang in his meta farewell sketch.
