Amanda Seyfried will make her debut as host of “Saturday Night Live” on Dec. 5.

Seyfried is center stage in one of the year’s most talked-about movies, the Elizabeth Holmes documentary “You Can See Everything.” The musical guest for the episode will be rapper Don Toliver.

“SNL” confirmed Seyfried’s gig with a graphic flashed during the Nov. 14 episode, hosted by John Mulaney.

Seyfried has a big role in A24’s “You Can See Everything” given her history of playing the convicted Theranos fraudster Holmes in the 2022 Hulu limited series “The Dropout.” Directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim tapped Seyfried to recreate some scenes in a meta approach to the doc that chronicles the final few weeks for Holmes before she begins her prison sentence for her conviction on multiple charges of wire fraud.

Seyfried recently completed the indie film “The Life and Deaths of Winston Shedd,” opposite Tim Blake Nelson. She earned an Oscar nomination for supporting actress for her work in David Fincher’s 2021 drama “Mank,” about screenwriter Herman Mankiewicz and the making of “Citizen Kane.” She was nominated for lead actress in a limited series for her work in “The Dropout.”

Toliver is a singer and rapper out of the Houston area who has seen his star rise over the past half-dozen years. At present he’s in the midst of touring the U.K.
