The latest episode of “Saturday Night Live” took a hilarious jab at the highly anticipated Timothée Chalamet-starring Bob Dylan biopic, “A Complete Unknown,” set to release on Christmas Day. The sketch depicted a fictional red-carpet premiere of the film, with Chloe Fineman portraying Chalamet.
In the skit, Fineman’s Chalamet jokingly mentioned having a “Brat Summer,” a reference to a CharliXCX-inspired trend. The scene escalated when a Buzzfeed reporter mistook Bob Dylan (played by James Austin Johnson) for also having a “Brat Summer,” to which Dylan comically responded with confusion, thinking he was being asked about bratwurst.
The red carpet chaos continued as Bruce Springsteen made a surprise appearance, singing a nod to his hit song “Born to Run.” The Boss shared a humorous moment with Dylan about hitting the hot bar, showcasing their quirky on-screen chemistry.
Another unexpected guest, Bono, joined the mix and diverted the conversation to climate change, highlighting the urgency to address global warming. Bono humorously referenced a fake Netflix documentary titled “Hot Frosty” to emphasize the seriousness of the issue.
The sketch also teased Paul Mescal making his hosting debut on the show, with artist Shaboozey as the musical guest for the evening. The star-studded parody added a comedic twist to the excitement surrounding the upcoming biopic and left viewers entertained with its witty banter and celebrity impersonations.
Overall, “Saturday Night Live” delivered another memorable sketch that captured the essence of Hollywood glamour and humorously parodied the entertainment industry’s red-carpet events. The episode featured a blend of satire, music, and celebrity cameos, making it a must-watch for fans of the iconic sketch comedy show.
