SNL50 what a magical 3 days. GREATEST SHOW OF ALL TIME.
My mind is blown.”
During the afterparty, Momoa also reconnected with Donna Richards, a longtime SNL dresser. He jokingly inquired about Richards, asking if she likes to travel, showcasing a fun dynamic between the two. Momoa, who hosted “Saturday Night Live” in 2018, revealed his deep affection for the show.
“The things that have happened in the last three days is insane. I can’t even explain from seeing Jack Nicholson and Robert DeNiro to Meryl Streep, Cher, Bonnie Raitt, and Lauryn Hill,” said Momoa. “That show is the reason, probably, why I’m in this industry.”
Looking forward, Momoa is preparing for new projects, including filming season 2 of his Max series “On the Roam” and playing the character Lobo in the upcoming film “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.” He also shared plans to embark on new adventures with his girlfriend, Adria Arjona.
The ‘SNL50’ afterparty impressed with its glamorous guest list and unforgettable moments, epitomized by the dance-off between Meryl Streep and Jason Momoa – a celebration truly befitting the legacy of “Saturday Night Live.”
