    The milestone 50th season of “Saturday Night Live” continues this week after Ariana Grande hosted and Stevie Nicks was the musical guest on last week’s episode.

    According to NBC, actor Michael Keaton will host for the fourth time on this Saturday’s episode. He first hosted a Halloween episode in 1982 and again in 1992 and 2015.

    Keaton recently reprized the role of Beetlejuice in “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice,” the sequel to the 1988 Tim Burton film. The Golden Globe and Emmy-winning actor also worked with Burton in 1989’s ‘Batman’ and ‘Batman Returns’ from 1992, in which Keaton played the titular superhero.

    The 50th season of the live comedy show premiered on September 28 and was hosted by Jean Smart. The next episode was hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze. Jelly Roll and Coldplay were the musical guests for those two episodes respectively.
