For Brolin, he is already showing off his skills at SNL when he decided to play a little game of basketball. In the latest promo for tonight’s episode, the actor showcased his skills on the court as he continuously dunked and scored on a few of the SNL cast members. Although competitive, the actor apologized in the hilarious promo as he claimed he was simply excited to be back.
Looking at the comments, fans are already gearing up to watch Brolin take over SNL. “You guys are super talented. Had a teacher like that once. Gave the most beautiful praise directly after he destroyed you. He came, he conquered, and then he remembered to be nice.” Another person wrote, “Oh yes this really does sum up his character so well, the man is impressive to the point of causing envy/jealousy but always humble and kind.” One fan even noted how amazing the lineup was tonight with Brolin and Grande sharing the stage. “Josh and Ariana Grande are both such a great fit for Please Don’t Destroy.”

Discussing the film, Grande said, “I think the movie is so beloved because so many people can relate to knowing that something isn’t right, but loving so much, and wanting to stay, and wanting to figure it out, and that cycle that can happen. I think it kind of fell into place that these songs had little tidbits of that theme,” she adds. “I just felt really inspired by it.”
