AceShowbiz - Scarlett Johansson is taking hosting "Saturday Night Live" very seriously. The 32-year-old actress is training very hard, like a fighter preparing for a fight, as she gets ready to host the sketch comedy series for the fifth time this week.
"Hosting 'SNL' is a big deal and I know how to prepare for a role," Johansson dramatically says in a promo. "I have to look the part. I have to transform my body and my mind." Meanwhile, Pete Davidson and Aidy Bryant, who watch the actress' training process, discuss how it's unnecessary for a host to prepare so physically, but they won't tell her anyway.
Scarlett returns as the host of "SNL" for the fifth time on Saturday, March 11 on NBC, with musical guest Lorde. The episode will apparently also mark the return of the show's regular player Pete Davidson, who had been absent from the show to focus on his sobriety.
"Just wanted to let you guys know I'm okay," he wrote on Instagram on Monday. "I know I've kinda been missing, on social media and on the show. I quit drugs and am happy and sober for the first time in 8 years."
