SNL ROLLS OUT 50TH SEASON OPENING LINEUP

Musical guest Jelly Roll (Broken Bow/Republic) will help launch Saturday Night Live's 50th season 9/28, followed on subsequent weekends by Warner Music Group's Coldplay and Stevie Nicks and likely Grammy contenders Billie Eilish and Chappell Roan. Ariana Grande will host the season's third episode 10/12, six weeks before the premiere of Wicked.

Jelly and Roan will be making their SNL debuts.

As always, election season should provide plenty of inspiration for the show.
