It's only a week away until Donald Trump will be sworn in as commander-in-chief and guess who's the most ready. It's Alec Baldwin! The actor revealed that he would return to "Saturday Night Live" to portray the 45th president of the U.S. on January 21, just a day after the inauguration.
"We're going to play [Trump] the day after the inauguration. [I'm] doing 'SNL' the day after the inauguration," Baldwin told Extra. "All of this comedy stuff we do on 'SNL', Trump is our head writer. Trump just hands it to us in a basket with a big bow on it everyday," he added.
The actor also stated in a separate interview that he's going to keep appearing on "Saturday Night Live" for the foreseeable future. He told ABC News, "I'm gonna do 'SNL' as much as I can. And there's discussions about other venues we might pursue to further express our gratitude and admiration for the Trump administration."
Meanwhile, promoting the upcoming episode of "Saturday Night Live", "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" actress Felicity Jones is seen rehearsing her opening monologue for the show in front of Stormtroopers. Jones will be hosting the show alongside musical guest Sturgill Simpson on Saturday, January 14 at 11:30 P.M. ET on NBC.
