Summary

Saturday Night Live will resume new broadcasts on February 28, 2026, after a three-week hiatus during the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. The highly anticipated return will feature Connor Storrie, a breakout star from the HBO Max series "Heated Rivalry," as host for his SNL debut.
Joining Storrie as the musical guest will be the band Mumford & Sons, who are making their fourth appearance on the show. The popular sketch comedy series is taking a break after its most recent episode hosted by Alexander Skarsgård.
The upcoming episode is scheduled to air on NBC and Peacock at 11:30 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT. Storrie's rise to fame comes after his role in "Heated Rivalry," a queer romance series based on Rachel Reid's books, which gained significant popularity on HBO Max and originally aired on the Canadian platform Crave.
