If you smell what “SNL” is cooking — well that could just be the scent of a great ending to the month.

WWE Superstar turned box office draw Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will host “Saturday Night Live” for the fourth time on March 28.

Joining the on-again, off-again pro wrestler, George Ezra will make his first appearance as “SNL” musical guest.

Johnson’s “Furious 7” speeds into theaters on April 3, while his disaster flick “San Andreas” comes out on May 29.

The latest installment to the “Fast and Furious” franchise also stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Ronda Rousey, Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Ludacris, Kurt Russell and Tyrese Gibson, among others.

In “San Andreas,” Johnson will be flanked by Alexandra Daddario, Carly Gugino, Paul Giamatti, Kylie Minogue, Colton Haynes, Ioan Gruffudd and more.

Ezra’s debut studio album, “Wanted on Voyage,” spawned the single “Budapest.” The singer-songwriter is currently on tour in the U.S. and Europe.

Saturday Night Live” is produced in association with Broadway Video. The creator and executive producer is Lorne Michaels.

There is no new “SNL” on this coming weekend; “Avengers” star Chris Hemsworth hosted the long-running sketch comedy show last Saturday.
