After a total of eight seasons, US comedian and actor Pete Davidson wants to get out of the NBC late night show “Saturday Night Live”.
US comedian and actor Pete Davidson (28) apparently gets off the NBC late night show “Saturday Night Live”. An insider said “Variety“that Davidson will be leaving the show after the latest installment. Davidson was a staple of the comedy format for over eight seasons, debuting on the show at the age of 20.
NBC producers have so far declined to comment on the rumours. US actors Aidy Bryant, Kate McKinnon and Kyle Mooney will also reportedly not be appearing in another season.
Flashy personal life and new projects
Pete Davidson has been making headlines for a long time, especially with his love life. Among other things, he was engaged to Ariana Grande (28) and with Kaia Gerber (20). He and reality TV star Kim Kardashian (41) have been officially a couple since April. Back in March, he provoked Kardashian’s ex Kanye West (44) with a nude selfie and when he asked where he was, he replied, “In bed with your wife.”
But Davidson has also been very busy as a television and film actor. Last year he was in front of the camera as “Blackguard” for “The Suicide Squad”. In the animated film “Marmaduke”(2022) he lent his voice to the mastiff of the same name. Davidson will also star in the horror film Bodies Bodies Bodies starting in August and will have an autobiographical role in the Peacock comedy Bupkis, according to Variety.
