Saturday Night

Golden Globe 2025 nominee!

At 11:30pm on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television — and culture — forever.

Directed by Jason Reitman and written by Gil Kenan & Reitman, Saturday Night is based on the true story of what happened behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of Saturday Night Live.

Full of humor, chaos, and the magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, we count down the minutes in real time until we hear those famous words….

Jazzed up by an excellent ensemble that captures the essence if not the exact likeness of SNL’s original cast and crew, Saturday Night is a frenetic and nostalgic celebration of one of showbiz’s most auspicious debuts.
