“Saturday Night” is ready to go live, and the cast of the film embodied “controlled chaos” when they visited TheWrap’s 2024 TIFF Studio sponsored by Moët & Chandon and Boss Design.
The new film from Jason Reitman, which takes place, almost in real time, in the 90 minutes that led to the first taping of “Saturday Night Live” almost 50 years ago, just played the Toronto International Film Festival. The movie is electric and unstoppable, with Reitman’s camera (manned by Eric Steelberg) zooming around the halls of 30 Rockefeller Center as actors refuse to sign contracts, NBC executives nervously pace and pretty much everything that could go wrong does go wrong.
