As revealed by the official "Saturday Night Live" Twitter page, actor Jake Gyllenhaal — the star of such films as "Nightcrawler," "Nocturnal Animals," and "Spider-Man: Far From Home," to name a few — is next in line to host on April 9. This marks the second time he's taken on the gig, having made his Studio 8H arrival way back in 2007 alongside musical guest The Shins. Although, he did pop in for the 2007 LeBron James and 2011 Elton John episodes as a surprise guest.
Gyllenhaal's "SNL" comeback coincides with the release of his latest film, "Ambulance." He stars in the Michael Bay-directed project as Danny Sharp: a career criminal who hijacks an ambulance with his adoptive brother, Will (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), following a robbery gone awry. The movie, which opened on April 8 in the United States, also features Eiza González as EMT Cam Thompson, Jackson White as Officer Zach, and Garret Dillahunt as LAPD Special Investigation Section Captain Monroe.
Additionally, the April 9 installment of "SNL" will include a performance from Camila Cabello. Her most recent album, titled "Familia," dropped on April 8 courtesy of Epic Records and includes previously released singles "Don't Go Yet" and "Bam Bam," in addition to 10 more tracks. Much like Gyllenhaal, this will be Cabello's second appearance on the Saturday evening staple, following up her debut in October of 2019 with host David Harbour.
