Paul Mescal is trading in his toga for a suit and a smirk as he gears up to host Saturday Night Live! Yes, the 28-year-old Oscar-nominated heartthrob—who made us all feel things in Normal People and is now set to battle lions in Gladiator II—is stepping into the world of sketch comedy on Saturday, December 7.

The announcement came during this weekend’s SNL episode hosted by Charli XCX, proving once again that the show is keeping its finger on the pulse of everyone you’re thirst-following on Instagram. And who’s bringing the tunes? None other than Shaboozey, the musical mastermind behind “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” the track that sounds exactly like its title suggests.

Now, before you whip out your calendars and count the days, let me warn you: SNL is taking a little break. That’s right—a three-week hiatus to let the writers rest, the cast recover, and the audience regain their strength for whatever chaotic energy Paul is about to unleash.

Paul’s been a busy lad lately, jet-setting around the globe to promote Gladiator II, where he presumably wrestles more emotional trauma (and possibly a tiger or two). The movie hits theaters November 22, so you’ve got just enough time to watch it, recover from the cinematic intensity, and then brace yourself for Paul’s comedic chops.

December 7 is shaping up to be an event. Expect Irish charm, unpredictable sketches, and possibly a gladiator helmet making an SNL cameo. And Shaboozey? Let’s just say, if his performance is anything like his tipsy anthem, the studio audience might need a designated driver.
