Season 47 of Saturday Night Live is on the way, and the beloved sketch show announced its first round-up of hosts and musical guests. Owen Wilson, Kim Kardashian West, Rami Malek, and Jason Sudeikis are set as the four opening hosts when SNL returns on NBC this fall.

Wilson will kick off the hosting duties on October 2nd, with the musical guest Kacey Musgraves. He’ll be followed by Kardashian on October 9th, who’ll be joined by Halsey as a musical guest. Malek will host on October 16th alongside Young Thug, while Sudeikis is set to be joined by Brandi Carlile on October 23rd.

What makes their involvement so extraordinary is that all four will make their hosting debuts, despite the fact they’re no strangers to the SNL stage. Jason Sudeikis was even a cast member of the show from 2005 to 2013, before embarking on a solo career and winning an Emmy for Ted Lasso.

Owen Wilson previously appeared on SNL as his Zoolander character Hansel alongside Ben Stiller, but this will be his first solo appearance. Kim Kardashian and Rami Malek were both poked fun of by the comedy show, but this will be their first time to make an appearance in person.
