SNL’s ‘Beevis and Butt-Head’ Sketch Was Originally Pitched for Jonah Hill in 2018, Reveals Crew: ‘We Fully Gave Up on It’ and Thought ‘This Isn’t Going to Happen’


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. In an interview with Vulture after the episode aired, Gardner revealed the Beavis and Butt-Head sketch had been “put up at table reads and rehearsals for about five years prior to this.” She had also “coached myself for so many years to not break,” but something about seeing Gosling and Day in character made it impossible. Then the anxiety set in and I was like, ‘Oh my God, was that okay?’ I had some friends in my dressing room, and they were like, ‘Of course, it was okay,’” Garnder said about breaking for such an extended period of time.
