Live from New York, it’s Chris Hemsworth! Actor hosting SNL in March

It was announced today that the God of Thunder, Chris Hemsworth, will host the March 7 episode of Saturday Night Live. This will be his first time hosting; the episode falls just two months shy of the release of AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON. This makes me believe that it was originally going to be to promote IN THE HEART OF THE SEA which went through a date shift from a March 15 release to December 11 of this year. Either way, we're probably going to be in for an entertaining show.

It’s been a Chris Hemsworth kind of day around here hasn’t it? First we get the NEW AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON poster that debuted this morning and then we learned that Jessica Chastain is his new co-star in THE HUNTSMAN. I was trying to think of a time when the actor had the chance to really show off his comedic chops, I found mostly just gag reels (see below). I was reminded however of his upcoming role in the VACATION reboot playing Stone Crandall, I’m laughing already.
