"Deer crossing, motherf--kers!" Saturday Night Live capitalized on both Disney's latest pull for live-action classics and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's aptitude for action flicks on March 28. The guest host, 42, who called himself "franchise viagra" during his musical monologue, slipped into a deer suit to play the beloved woodland creature, Bambi, in a live-action sketch.
Cecily Strong played Michelle Rodriguez, Jay Pharoah was Tyrese Gibson, and Taran Killam imitated Vin Diesel -- Johnson's Furious 7 costars, who were all supposed to be rough and tough versions of Bambi's forest friends.
