Saturday Night Live is breaking in a pair of first-timers this weekend, with musical guest Olivia Dean and host Glen Powell both making their debuts. And cast members Bowen Yang and Marcello Hernandez aren’t making things easy for them.

“Well, well, well,” Yang says, glaring. “If it isn’t a couple of first-timers,” Hernandez adds in a fake Southern accent. “Fresh fish,” Yang chimes in.

“You know how we treat your kind ’round these parts?” Hernandez asks. “You better buckle up, ’cause you’re in for a world of…”

“Dancing!” the pair say in unison, as they break out into some chaotic choreography.

“Ooh! I quite like it,” Dean says with a smile, while Powell had other thoughts: “I was about to pull out my gun.”

Elsewhere in the promos, Hernandez initiates a (very fast) game of hide-and-seek, and Yang and Hernandez do a Freaky Friday body swap (“I’ve bluffed my way through so many Wicked press junkets”).

Dean is capping a breakout year with her SNL debut, following the top 10 Billboard 200 debut of her sophomore album The Art of Loving and her first four entries on the Billboard Hot 100, led by the top five hit “Man I Need.”

Powell is promoting his new movie The Running Man, which arrives in theaters on Friday, as well as season 1 of his Hulu series Chad Powers, which premiered in September.

Saturday Night Live airs at 11:30 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT on NBC and streams on Peacock. (See all the options to watch SNL here.)

Kehlani, Kali Uchis and EJAE are the latest trailblazers to be honored by ASCAP’s Women Behind the Music. Newly minted 2026 Grammy nominees Kehlani and EJAE (part of the HUNTR/X trio behind the KPop Demon Hunters breakout hit “Golden”) along with Grammy winning-artist Uchis were recognized for their artistry, cultural impact and contributions to the music industry.

The trio were presented with personalized plaques by Nicole George-Middleton, ASCAP executive vp & head of creative membership inside West Hollywood’s The Fleur Room on Wednesday evening.

Commenting on this year’s honoree slate, George-Middleton said, “ASCAP Women Behind the Music is more than an annual event for us. We not only spotlight women for their impactful contributions to the music community, we also hope to inspire the next generation of young women to use their artistry, leadership and boldness to navigate challenges they may face in the industry.

“Last night,” she continued, “we honored three of the most extraordinary women in music today including EJAE, who co-wrote the record-breaking single “Golden” from Neftlix’s most-streamed film K-Pop Demon Hunters; Kali Uchis, who has reached the Spotify Billions Club four times; and Kehlani, who has earned over 20 gold and platinum RIAA certifications, accumulating more than five billion streams.”

Also spotted in the audience were Cheryl “Salt” James of Salt-N-Pepa, fresh from the pioneering hip-hop trio’s recent induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and award-winning songwriter Diane Warren, who is a 2026 best music film Grammy nominee for the documentary Relentless. In attendance as well was Grammy-winning songwriter and 2022 ASCAP Women Behind the Music honoree Joelle James.

Now in its 17th year, ASCAP Women Behind the Music spotlights songwriters, artists and executives who are forging inroads in the music industry. In addition to the aforementioned James and Salt-N-Papa, prior ASCAP Women Behind the Music honorees include Kelly Rowland, Coco Jones, Jazmine Sullivan, production/songwriting duo Nova Wav and executives Phylicia Fant of Amazon and Nicole Wyskoarko of Interscope.
