Fresh off her success from hosting the Golden Globes, Sandra Oh is getting another high profile hosting gig.
She’s slated to host Saturday Night Live on NBC March 30. She’ll be the second Asian American actress to get the coveted slot in six months, but just the third in the show’s history. Awkwafina made a big splash in September. Before that, Lucy Liu hosted in 2000.
SNL writer Bowen Yang announced Oh’s appearance on Twitter.
