SNL needs someone who can emulate the suburban, every-dad energy of Kamala Harris’s VP pick. Here’s who we think could fit
On Thursday, comedian Steve Martin announced that he wouldn’t be playing the Minnesota governor turned Democrat veep pick, Tim Walz, on Saturday Night Live, even after SNL big cheese Lorne Michaels offered him the job.
“I wanted to say no and, by the way, he wanted me to say no,” Martin told the Los Angeles Times. “I said, ‘Lorne, I’m not an impressionist. You need someone who can really nail the guy.’ I was picked because I have gray hair and glasses … They’re gonna find somebody really, really good. I’d be struggling.”
