NEW YORK (AP) — Matt Damon, Will Ferrell and Paul McCartney will help close out the “Saturday Night Live” season, along with a double dose of Olivia Rodrigo.

Rodrigo will do double duty as host and musical guest on May 2, marking her hosting debut and third time as musical guest, ahead of her new album, “you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love.”

Damon, promoting Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey,” will host the following week for the third time on May 9. Noah Kahan will perform as that show’s musical guest, for the second time.
