Watch 'SNL' poke fun at 'Spider-Man: No Way Home,' political villains, and more in the hilarious cold open.

Saturday Night Live came back with a bang with West Side Story star Ariana DeBose hosting. Also, since this was the first SNL since the majority of Earth’s population saw Spider-Man: No Way Home, the show’s cold open hilariously had James Austin Johnson’s Joe Biden address the nation.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Biden then takes questions regarding his statement and the sketch only gets more absurd from there when a reporter played by SNL’s Bowen Yang asks, “Do you think all COVID will end if people stop going to the movies?” This is when Biden clarifies that, “I didn’t say ‘don’t go to the movies.’ I said ‘stop seeing Spider-Man. See anything else. I saw the first half-hour of House of Gucci. That’s more than enough movie for anyone.

The sketch finishes with one final question by a reporter played by Andrew Dismukes about the multiverse. “Do you think that elsewhere in the multiverse, there’s a version of you that wants people to see Spider-Man?” A relieved Biden exclaims, “Finally a good question. I actually thought about this a lot.” The skit only gets more off the rails as Biden goes on a very entertaining tangent about him knowing about 3 different versions of himself.
