The iconic Beevis and Butthead sketch with Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day was originally pitched for Jonah Hill in 2018.
“ Saturday Night Live ” hair stylist Jodi Mancuso and makeup artist Louie Zakarian recently told The Ankler(via People) that the now-iconic Beavis and Butt-Head sketch with Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day was originally pitched for host Jonah Hill in 2018.
