The Girl on the Comedy Show

Clever way to ensure that The Girl on the Train remains part of the conversation well after Hurricane Matthew almost sort of derailed its box-office prospects this weekend.

Emily Blunt’s gonna host TV’s Saturday Night Live – for the very first time – next weekend, on Oct. 15 (Lin-Manuel Miranda’s on tonight). Bruno Mars will serve as the musical guest on the actress’ night.

Meanwhile, Sully star Tom Hanks has been tapped to take on the show on Oct. 22, with musical guest Lady GaGa.

And now you know.
