Amanda Seyfried to host Saturday Night Live for the first time on December 5
Don Toliver will be the musical guest for the season 51 episode, ahead of Seyfried’s return as Sam in Peacock’s Ted: The Animated Series.
Saturday Night Live has named Amanda Seyfried as host for its December 5 episode, marking her first time leading the NBC sketch show. Don Toliver will provide the musical performance on the season 51 broadcast.
The lineup was revealed before a commercial break during the first half of the show’s latest episode. Seyfried, 40, is an Oscar-nominated actress whose hosting appearance coincides with several film and television projects.
Among them is Ted: The Animated Series, which is scheduled to arrive on Peacock on December 17. Seyfried will return as Sam in the animated sequel to the two Ted films.
The series follows John and Ted twelve years after the previous movie, with both now raising families, working dead-end jobs and living as neighbors. Seyfried also recently appeared in the documentary You Can See Everything and is lending her voice to Netflix’s animated film Steps.
