Timothée Chalamet Prepares for 'SNL' Hosting and Musical Guest Debut With Lookalikes

The actor, set to host and perform on January 25, enlists doppelgängers in a humorous promo referencing a viral lookalike contest.

Timothée Chalamet will serve as both host and musical guest on the January 25 episode of Saturday Night Live, marking his first time performing music on the show.
In a promotional skit, Chalamet humorously recruits four lookalikes to assist with hosting duties, allowing him to focus on his musical performance.
The promo references an October 2024 viral lookalike contest in New York City’s Washington Square Park, which Chalamet unexpectedly attended.
The actor’s musical performance ties into his role as Bob Dylan in the biopic 'A Complete Unknown,' for which he performed his own vocals.
This will be Chalamet’s third time hosting SNL, following appearances in 2020 and 2023, but his first time taking on dual roles on the show.
