Saturday Night Live just unveiled their season return this October and — as always — they have a lot of starpower in their hosts and musical guests.

For the upcoming 47th season, premiering October 2, Owen Wilson hosts with musical guest Kacey Musgraves; Kim Kardashian hosts the following week with Halsey performing. Halsey’s had some experience on SNL, hosting on the late-night comedy show back in 2019.

Per gossip website TMZ, Kim and mom Kris Jenner met with SNL‘s Lorne Michaels last month in Beverly Hills — something their team played down by saying it was just a “simple catch-up.”

It will be most interesting to see how Kim K delivers her opening monologue and does on the show, as she and her family are often made fun of.

Rami Malek hosts October 16 with musical guest Young Thug, and Jason Sudeikis takes over October 23 with Brandi Carlile as the musical guest.
