NBC’s Saturday Night Live will close its current season with three old friends: two returning hosts, Zach Galifianakis and Ben Affleck, and former cast member Kristen Wiig.
Galifianakis, who can be seen in The Hangover Part III starting May 24, will host the May 4 episode (all episodes, 11:30 p.m. ET/PT), which will feature Iceland’s Of Monsters and Men as a first-time musical guest.
Wiig, whose upcoming film appearances include Girl Most Likely and Anchorman: The Legend Continues, will make her first appearance as host on May 11. Vampire Weekend will make its third appearance as musical guest.
Affleck, who directed and starred in the Oscar-winning Argo, will close out the 38th season on May 18, making his fifth appearance as SNL host. He can be seen next in Runner Runner. Musical guest Kanye West will also be making his fifth appearance in that role.
