September 10, 2024 by Amie Cranswick

Sony Pictures has released a new trailer for Saturday Night, the biographical comedy drama from director Jason Reitman which is based on the true story of the behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the 1975 premiere of Saturday Night Live.

The film features a cast that includes Gabriel LaBelle as Lorne Michaels, Dylan O’Brien as Dan Aykroyd, Cory Michael Smith as Chevy Chase, Rachel Sennott as Rosie Shuster, Lamorne Morris as Garrett Morris, Nicholas Braun as Jim Henson, Finn Wolfhard as an NBC page, Jon Batiste as Billy Preston, Matt Wood as John Belushi, Ella Hunt as Gilda Radnor, Cooper Hoffman as Dick Ebersol, Andrew Barth Feldman as Neil Levy, Willem Dafoe as David Tebet, J.K. Simmons as Milton Berle, and Kaia Gerber as Jacqueline Carlin.

At 11:30pm on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television – and culture – forever. Directed by Jason Reitman and written by Gil Kenan & Reitman, Saturday Night is based on the true story of what happened behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of Saturday Night Live. Full of humor, chaos, and the magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, we count down the minutes in real time until we hear those famous words…

Saturday Night arrives in theatres on October 11th.
