Rudolph Hints at Kamala Harris Comeback on SNL

Maya Rudolph is hinting at a possible return to Saturday Night Live as Vice President Kamala Harris. During a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, with RuPaul substituting as host, Rudolph discussed the idea but didn’t confirm any details about her potential comeback.

Rudolph, who was a prominent cast member on SNL from 2000 to 2007, has since returned to the show for various guest appearances and hosting duties. In 2020, she won an Emmy Award for her portrayal of Harris during the presidential race. Rudolph expressed her amazement at being associated with such a significant political moment, reflecting on how her career has evolved.

In the interview, Rudolph mentioned how surreal it is to think about playing a presidential candidate and how much it means to her. She noted that the announcement of her involvement in SNL was unexpected but exciting, emphasizing how much it resonated with her and her career.

Although there are no new updates on her return to SNL, Rudolph hinted at the possibility with a light-hearted “We’ll see!” She remains a notable figure in comedy and television, and her potential return to SNL would be highly anticipated by fans.

In addition to her possible SNL return, Rudolph is also in the running for Emmy Awards this year. She’s nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in Loot and Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series for her recent SNL hosting stint.
