Kanye West and Justin Timberlake are scheduled guests on Saturday Night Live’s upcoming 40th anniversary special.
Set to premiere on February 15, the show will also include appearances from Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Robert Deniro, Derek Jeter, Tina Fey, Adam Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Amy Poehler and Bill Murray, among others.
Yesterday (February 1), SNL released a parody biopic trailer featuring white actors Mike O’Brien, Jason Sudeikis, and J.K. Simmons as Jay Z, Kanye West, and Nas respectively. The sketch parodies the state of whitewashing in the film industry and also portrays a scene explaining the resolution of the rapper’s beef with Nas and an imagined first meeting between Jay Z and Beyonce.
The trailer for SNL’s 40th Anniversary Special, set to premiere on February 15 at 8PM (EST), can be seen below:
