Dylan O’Brien stars as comedian and actor Dan Aykroyd in the biographical-comedy drama Saturday Night based on the true events that occurred in the 90 minutes before the 1975 premiere night of Saturday Night Live. Dylan will be joining an ensemble cast that also includes Gabriel LaBelle, Rachel Sennott, Cory Michael Smith, Ella Hunt, Emily Fairn, Matt Wood, Lamorne Morris, Kim Matula, Finn Wolfhard, Nicholas Braun, Cooper Hoffman, Andrew Barth Feldman, Kaia Gerber, Tommy Dewey, Willem Dafoe, Matthew Rhys, and J. K. Simmons.
The poster reads:
“The writers are stoned. The set is on fire. The sound system is fucked. The actors are physically assaulting each other. The crew is in open revolt. They have 90 minutes to get their shit together or the network is pulling the plug. Saturday Night Live.”
Okay, understandably, the movie is a biographical comedy, but that’s not stopping the cast from sharing a behind-the-scenes video of themselves with a little sneak-peek of O’Brien in itty bitty booty shorts. Rachel Sennott, who plays Rosie Shuster, shared a silly video of the cast in costume on her TikTok account.

Dylan looks fully in character, rocking groovy glasses and a perfectly groomed mustache. His biceps are flexed just right as he strikes a pose for the camera.
