Everyone’s talking about Ryan Gosling’s live action Beavis and Butt-Head skit on Saturday Night Live, which aired this past Saturday (April 13).
The actor hosted this weekend’s SNL episode, which featured country artist Chris Stapleton as its musical guest. During the special, Gosling and the show’s own Mikey Day dressed up as the iconic, rock and metal-loving cartoon duo Beavis and Butt-Head — and even talked, laughed and sat like them.
In the skit, dubbed “News Nation,” Keenan Thompson portrays a professor discussing the dangers of AI with Heidi Gardner, but he continuously gets distracted by Gosling and Day’s characters because of their uncanny resemblance to Beavis and Butt-Head. Both of them, however, deny having any awareness of the show.
Gosling and Gardner even had a hard time keeping straight faces during the performance.
