Actor, comedian, and musician Jack Black will host Saturday Night Live for the fifth time on April 4, 2026. It will be an All-Jack episode: Jack White will appear as the musical guest after SNL takes a week off for hiatus following four straight shows in February and March.
Black will become the 26th member of the SNL Five-Timers Club as hosts to appear at least five times. Black has hosted these times previously:
White has appeared five times as a musical guest, four times solo, and once with his bandmate and former wife Meg White. He last appeared on SNL on October 10, 2020, in Season 46.
Black has the energy of a performer who could easily have been an SNL cast member. He’s physical, can sing, dance, act, everything you need in Studio 8H.
Here’s Black’s monologue from his hosting gig in Season 50.
