This is either a trick, or a real treat.
Tom Hanks tweeted out part of a script on Thursday night — but no, it’s not more “Da Vinci Code” stuff. The prolific actor shared a photo of the stage direction and opening lyrics to “The David S. Pumpkins Song.”
For the uninitiated (and missing-out), David S. Pumpkins is a bizarre “Saturday Night Live” character Hanks introduced us to last Halloween. Could the oddity and his dancing skeletons return to “SNL” late next month? It kind of looks like that, and we sure hope so.
It is pretty atypical for the Lorne Michaels’ series to write sketches so far in advance, so it’s possible that this is not an actual “SNL” script. TheWrap reached out to a show rep and asked, but we did not immediately hear back.
For now, enjoy the Halloween 2016 version of David S. Pumpkins via the video above.
Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer on 'SNL': Watch Every Sketch (Videos)
Now that Sean Spicer has resigned as White House press secretary, the fate of Melissa McCarthy's famed impersonation of him hangs in the balance. We've collected all of the comedy queen's Spicey moments on "Saturday Night Live" for you to hold onto for safe keeping.
In the case McCarthy's first appearance as Spicer, she parodied his password mishap, his fondness for chewing gum and distorted facts to be favorable to President Trump.
In her next appearance, McCarthy opened with "I am calm now... This is the new Spicey" (with an even bigger wad of gum). She also used Barbie dolls and a Disney Moana doll to explain the travel ban.
In her Easter appearance, McCarthy, as Spicer, addressed his Holocaust snafu: "Spicey finally screwed up. You got me. I clearly meant to say ‘concentration clubs.’"
Before McCarthy's hosting appearance on "SNL," she battled New York City traffic as Spicer, podium and all.
In this sketch, McCarthy hides in some bushes while he spies on Sarah Huckabee Sanders (Aidy Bryant). But when the reporters start saying they like Sanders better, an angry Spicer bursts into the room. "Spicey's back, Sarah's out."
Also when McCarthy hosted the NBC show, she transformed into a Spicer costume set to "I Feel Pretty" from "Westside Story."
