John Mulaney’s promo for his “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig this weekend gets crashed by ‘Bob Dylan,’ who lends his Nobel Prize-winning talent to write some very unusual cue cards.
In the video, which was released on Wednesday, Mulaney becomes puzzled as his intro turns into a reminiscence about running into music producer Shooter Jennings in Luxembourg.
“Sorry. Uh, who’s the writer on this promo?” he asks as the camera cuts to James Austin Johnson as the folk icon, who says he’s been hired as the cue card writer since “it’s Season 50 and they’re busting out the big guns.”
The former “SNL” writer points out that the intro, which name-dropped Guns N’ Roses guitarist Duff McKagan, was “a little overwritten.”
