Saturday Night Live opens with Access Hollywood coverage of this weekend’s Oscars red carpet preshow. Between awkward shots of women’s feet, Mario Lopez (Marcello Hernandez) and either Maria Menounos or Kit Hoover (Heidi Gardner) interview the ceremony’s new head of security, “notoriously calm and sane person” Mike Tyson (Kenan Thompson); “refreshingly down to earth” nominee Jamie Lee Curtis (Chloe Fineman); incomprehensible Banshees of Inisherin costars Colin Farrell (Mikey Day) and Brendan Gleeson (Molly Kearny); Michelle Williams’ Jewish acting coach (Sarah Sherman); and finally, Tom Cruise – or, rather, George Santos (Bowen Yang) pretending to be Tom Cruise.
