Saturday Night Live: Ramy Youssef to Host March 30 Episode With Musical Guest Travis Scott

Ramy Youssef is taking his act to Studio 8H to host Saturday Night Live.

The actor and stand-up comedian will host the March 30 episode of NBC’s sketch-comedy institution, joined by musical guest Travis Scott. The announcement came during a promo that ran during this week’s SNL, hosted by Josh Brolin. (Check out this week’s cold open with Scarlett Johansson as Katie Britt.)

This marks Youssef’s first stint as SNL host. He currently stars alongside Emma Stone and Mark Ruffalo in Poor Things, which is up for 11 Oscars this weekend, including Best Picture. He also starred in and co-created the acclaimed Hulu comedy Ramy, which ended its three-season run in 2022. He won a Golden Globe for his lead role in Ramy in 2020, and the series also won a Peabody Award the same year. His new stand-up special, Ramy Youssef: More Feelings, will air on HBO later this month.
