“Unearthing the Comedy Gems: SNL’s 1975 Cast Comes to Life with the Perfect Mix of …..!”

Prepare to step back in time as Sony Pictures brings the legendary SNL 1975 to life, directed by the masterful Jason Reitman. The ensemble cast for this cinematic journey into the chaotic brilliance behind the iconic Saturday Night Live debut is nothing short of spectacular.

Lamorne Morris, the magnetic force from FX’s Fargo, steps into the shoes of the irrepressible Garrett Morris, while Dylan O’Brien, the cinematic virtuoso known for the Maze Runner saga, takes on the persona of the legendary Dan Aykroyd. Gotham’s enigmatic Riddler, Cory Michael Smith, transforms into the irreverent Chevy Chase, and the versatile Matt Wood embodies the wild spirit of John Belushi.

Reitman and co-writer Gil Kenan craft a screenplay that doesn’t just tell a story; it thrusts us into the pulsating heart of a revolution that almost never happened. Picture it: October 11, 1975, the electric moments leading up to the inaugural SNL broadcast. The film promises to be a real-time countdown, capturing the chaos and enchantment that unfolded, culminating in the immortal words, “Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!”

The script is a mosaic of authentic narratives, stitched together from interviews with the living legends who graced that first stage. Joining Reitman on this cinematic voyage are producers Jason Blumenfeld, Erica Mills, and Peter Rice.

Lamorne Morris, represented by CAA, Entertainment 360, and Myman Greenspan Fox Rosenberg Mobasser Younger & Light, continues to dazzle in Fargo and Netflix’s Unstable. Dylan O’Brien, navigating seamlessly from Ponyboi to the Sundance-premiered Caddo Lake, is repped by WME, Principal Entertainment LA, and Lichter, Grossman, Nichols, Feldman, Rogal, Shikora & Clark.

Cory Michael Smith, a maestro in Todd Haynes’ May December, is guided by Circle of Confusion. Matt Wood, whose theatrical brilliance includes SpongeBob SquarePants on Broadway, is repped by BRS/Gage Talent Agency.

Get ready to witness the untold stories, the magic, and the mayhem that birthed a cultural revolution. SNL 1975 promises an enthralling exploration into the crucible of creativity, all while respecting the boundaries of copyright magic.
