As we anticipate the return of Saturday Night Live, there’s a mix of good and bad news. Unfortunately, there won’t be a new episode airing tonight, January 10. However, what we do have is an exciting lineup of the first three hosts for 2026.

Kicking off the new year, Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard will step into the spotlight for his first-ever hosting gig on SNL. Joining him as the musical guest is A$AP Rocky. Following Finn, the stage will be taken over by two more newcomers: Teyana Taylor, known for her role in One Battle After Another, and Alexander Skarsgård. Teyana will host with musical guest Geese, while Alexander will be paired with Cardi B for his episode.

Now that we know who the upcoming hosts are, the question remains: when will Saturday Night Live return with fresh episodes? Here’s the latest on that.
