NEW YORK, N.Y. -- Ladies, get ready – Justin Timberlake might just be bringing his gift-wrapped “Box” back to the “Saturday Night Live” stage just in time for Christmas!
Justin will return to Studio 8H as the musical guest for the December 21 episode, joining host – and sketch comedy BFF – Jimmy Fallon, who will take the stage as host for his second time.
Prior to Jimmy and Justin’s episode, the boys of One Direction will grace the “SNL” stage as the musical guests (their second time performing on the show), alongside host Paul Rudd on the December 7 episode.
Also heading to the Big Apple for some late night “SNL” holiday fun will be John Goodman – marking his impressive 13th stint as host – for the December 14 episode. The actor will be joined by Kings of Leon, who will hit the “SNL” stage for their third time as musical guests.
This weekend, “Hunger Games: Catching Fire” star Josh Hutcherson will make his “SNL” hosting debut, with musical guest HAIM.
VOTE: Which musical guest are you more excited to see on ‘SNL’ — Justin Timberlake or One Direction?
