Saturday Night Live is ready to welcome Glen Powell as host this November in a highly anticipated evening of live comedy. Powell, whose on-screen charisma has won him a growing fanbase over the years, will headline a special filled with sketches and surprises. Alongside him, a guest star is also poised to take the center stage, promising to elevate the episode into a must-watch event. The stage is clearly set for a night where humor meets unpredictability.

When exactly will Glen Powell grace SNL, though? And who will star alongside him on the coveted late-night show?

On Friday, October 17, Saturday Night Live announced that Glen Powell will host its November 15 episode, with British breakout Olivia Dean as the musical guest. Powell, known for starring in offerings like Top Gun: Maverick but truly catapulting to fame following his 2023 rom-com Anyone But You, is set to both tickle and charm audiences on the iconic live show. Dean, 26, meanwhile, has quickly gained attention for her soulful voice and emotive performances, making her a fitting choice for SNL’s stage. Together, they promise a memorable night of celebrity moments.

Olivia Dean, notably, recently released her second album, 'The Art of Loving.' Glen Powell, 36, for his part, recently starred in the new Hulu comedy, Chad Powers, while simultaneously working on his upcoming thriller, The Running Man, reflecting a versatile year in his career. With both artists at the height of their creative momentum, the SNL episode is shaping up to be a win-win situation. With SNL’s mid-November lineup now discussed, meanwhile, looking at who is set to command the show with immediate effect is also worth one’s attention.
