NBC has announced the hosts and musical guests for the season's first four new episodes episodes of "Saturday Night Live."
As has previously been revealed, Megan Fox will be hosting the 35th season's premiere on Sept. 26, with a tiny Irish rock ensemble named U2 serving as musical guest. That's a pretty big show, right?
How do you top it?
Well, realistically you don't, but Ryan Reynolds will host the Oct. 3 episode. The star of "The Proposal" and the upcoming "Green Lantern" will do his best to avoid getting upstaged by Lady Gaga, who will be making her "SNL" debut as musical guest.
A more seasoned veteran will host the Oct. 10 episode, with Drew Barrymore returning for the sixth time. Barrymore, who first hosted at the age of seven back in 1982, will be promoting her feature directing debut, "Whip It," which just happens to co-star "Saturday Night Live" regular Kristen Wiig. The musical guest that night will be Regina Spektor.
The streak of four season-opening new episodes concludes when Gerard Butler, always funnier than his movie roles have given him the chance to showcase, will host the Oct. 17 episode. Butler, promoting the release of "Law Abiding Citizen," will be accompanied by Shakira.

September 10, 2009 at 2:58PM EST Reply to CommentGlad to see Gerard Butler coming up for the 17th. I and a lot of others will be making that a prime Appoitment. Can't wait to see him in Law Abiding Citizen. The man is an Oscar worthy actor by anyone's standard. Good Luck Gerry.
