Benedict Cumberbatch Heading Back to Host ‘Saturday Night Live’

Marvel Studios

Benedict Cumberbatch is heading back to Saturday Night Live! The actor will host the May 7 show with Arcade Fire as a musical guest.

The gig will no doubt be to promote his next film, a smaller project called Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which premieres the Friday before on May 6. This will be the star’s second hosting appearance on the late-night show, the first coming in 2016 to promote the first Doctor Strange film.

While we impatiently wait for Cumberbatch’s night next month, let’s take a gander through some of our favorite sketches from his first appearance.

The age-old question of why Benedict Cumberbatch is hot is answered in this sketch. So, if you’re someone who gets asked about this, just forward them this video.
