The show, which will air at 11:35 p.m. local time on NBC, announced the news on social media, writing, “Woody Harrelson and Jack White!!!”
The upcoming performance will be White’s fifth appearance on SNL. He first appeared on the show in 2002 with The White Stripes. He’s also performed three times as a solo artist since. In 2020, he appeared last minute after a prior musical guest cancelled during the pandemic due to health reasons.
This year, Saturday Night Live has featured a number of big names, including Sam Smith, Lil Baby, and Coldplay.
As for White, his next big move is to appear in the new Martin Scorsese film Killers Of The Flower Moon. He is no stranger to film, having already played Elvis in the comedy Walk Hard.
