New promo for an upcoming episode of "Saturday Night Live" has been released. The video features cast member Cecily Strong, musical guest Ed Sheeran and Alec Baldwin, who will make his 17th appearance as the host on February 11.

The promo begins with Baldwin introducing himself as the host and Sheeran as the musical guest. Strong chimes in, "Wow Alec you've been here so much this season." Baldwin answers, "Yeah it's been so fun." However, the best part comes when Sheeran shows off his Donald Trump impression in front of Baldwin, the master of Trump impersonation, at the end of the video.

"You do a really good Trump impression," says Strong. Baldwin replies, "Thank you so much." Strong tells Baldwin, "Oh no, I'm sorry - I was talking to Ed. He was cracking everybody up." She says to Sheeran, "Ed, do it." With no doubt, Sheeran says, "Terrific!" copying Trump's voice complete with his signature hand moves. "So good," says Strong, impressed. Meanwhile, Baldwin doesn't look happy with it.

Aside from the promo, "Saturday Night Live" has launched its first original Snapchat show on February 10. Titled "Boycott", the debut video features cast members Aidy Bryant, Beck Bennett and Bobby Moynihan. Bryant and Bennett play a couple who attempts to boycott products associated with the president. But then they find it much harder than they thought.

According to NBC, "Boycott", directed by Paul Briganti, is the first planned series of "Saturday Night Live" shows on Snapchat. Co-written by Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, "Boycott" will be available for at least 48 hours on Snapchat's Discover section.

"Saturday Night Live" airs on Saturdays at 11:30 P.M. ET on NBC.
