Connor Storrie is set to host Saturday Night Live (SNL) on February 28, marking his debut on the iconic show. He will be joined by musical guests Mumford & Sons, who are promoting their upcoming album “Prizefighter,” scheduled for release on February 20.
Heated Rivalry Surrounds Connor Storrie’s SNL Debut
This highly anticipated episode comes during a period of intense excitement for SNL, particularly with the buzz around the “Heated Rivalry” theme. The show has recently featured a lineup of first-time hosts, including Finn Wolfhard, Teyana Taylor, and Alexander Skarsgård, along with musical acts like A$AP Rocky and Cardi B.
Recent Changes in the Cast
Season 51 of SNL has seen significant alterations both in front of and behind the camera. Bowen Yang, a notable player for seven seasons, departed following Ariana Grande’s hosting appearance. This shift coincided with a broader cast reshuffle, leading to the exits of veteran members Heidi Gardner and Ego Nwodim.
- Newcomers like Jeremy Culhane, Veronika Slowikowska, and Ben Marshall have joined the ensemble from the comedy trio Please Don’t Destroy.
- The series aims to blend established legacy appeal with fresh talent.
Under the creative direction of Lorne Michaels, Saturday Night Live continues its mission of evolving, even amidst transitions. The show airs on Saturdays at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC, and fans can expect a lively atmosphere with Storrie and Mumford & Sons on February 28.
