“Saturday Night Live” has set a star-studded lineup for the final episodes of Season 51.

Olivia Rodrigo will pull double duty as both host and musical guest on May 2; Matt Damon will host the May 9 episode with Noah Kahan serving as musical guest; and the season finale on May 16 will be headlined by Will Ferrell as host and Paul McCartney as musical guest.

Rodrigo will be making her hosting debut, though she has previously appeared on “SNL” as a musical guest alongside host Keegan-Michael Key in 2021 and Adam Driver in 2023. Her episode comes before the June 12 release of her third album “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love.” Rodrigo’s previous work includes the 2021 album “Sour,” which featured the hit single “Driver’s License,” and the 2023 album “Guts.”
