‘Saturday Night Live’ books another host: ‘Hamilton’ star Lin-Manuel Miranda

The Saturday Night Live writers better have their rap-scribing skills dusted off.

Lin-Manuel Miranda will host SNL”s October 8 episode, NBC announced today. Twenty One Pilots is lined up for the musical guest slot that night.

The Hamilton star”s gig for that episode, the second of SNL“s 42nd season, will follow Suicide Squad actress Margot Robbie hosting the premiere this Saturday, October 1.

Emily Blunt may also have scored an SNL hosting job, as TVLine posted today, though NBC isn”t commenting on that report. Maybe her Mary Poppins Returns co-star will have some tips on how to host a kickass SNL episode.
