Based on Paul Rudd’s recent entry into the five-man club, fans should expect more SNL veterans to return to help induct John into the distinguished club, such as Tom Hanks, Candice Bergen , Justin Timberlake, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin and Chevy Chase.

Last Friday, Mulaney reunited with SNL cast member Pete Davidson in Los Angeles, where he met his two-month-old son, Malcolm Hiệp.

The two-time Emmy winner welcomed his first child with The Gateway actress Olivia Munn, whom he reconnected with “at church in Los Angeles” in February 2021.

John was still in love with his ex-wife Anna Marie Tendler when he first met the 41-year-old half-Vietnamese while attending Seth Meyer’s wedding in 2013.

Mulaney’s divorce from the 36-year-old multi-talented artist was finalized on January 6 after six years of marriage, and she retained primary custody of their eight-year-old French bulldog Petunia.

“Everything that happened was totally shocking and I think surreal,” Anna told Harper’s Bazaar earlier this month.
