Cast members in the promo: Jeremy Culhane, Ben Marshall, Kam Patterson, Veronika Slowikowsa
Is Alexander Skarsgård the tallest person to ever host SNL? At an alleged 6-foot-4, the Murderbot star is certainly in the, um, upper echelon of vertically gifted folks to host the show, joining folks like Charles Barkley (6-foot-6) and Jacob Elordi (6-foot-5).
SNL decided that Skarsgård’s height is a big target for laughs when it came to the promo for his episode, especially when he can be paired up with the almost universally short freshman cast members, Veronika Slowikowsa, Jeremy Culhane and Kam Patterson. But not Ben Marshall. Get lost, beanstalk.
