Gal Gadot and Kumail Nanjiani are both set to make their “SNL” hosting debuts next month.

“Wonder Woman” and the “Silicon Valley” star will follow Ryan Gosling’s Sept. 30 season premiere, when “Saturday Night Live” returns for its remarkable 43rd season with musical guest Jay-Z.

Gadot’s Oct. 7 musical guest will be Sam Smith. A week later, Nanjiani’s sketch comedy will be spelled for two songs by Pink.

Gosling has hosted the show once before, and Jay-Z has rapped on it three previous times. When Smith does his thing on the following episode, it’ll mark the sad-song singer’s second appearance. Pink’s done the show twice to-date.

This season, “Saturday Night Live” will air live simultaneously around the country, something the NBC staple tried out at the end of last season. We guess they liked it.

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