You might be surprised to know that Oscar turned down the chance to host SNL in 2015, at the height of his Star Wars popularity. When he did host on March 5, the most surprising revelation from the monologue he delivered was that.
After revealing that he was once an Avenger, and that he was excited to join the Marvel universe, he said that he was in Moon Knight, which is coming to Disney+ on March 30. Not a superhero, but a ninja.
He wrote, directed, and starred in a movie called The Avenger that he shot with a friend at age 10. You know the kind of low-rent video project I am talking about. Kids are making stuff with a camera. That is the caliber of cinema we are talking about.
The Moon Knight star was ready. He shared clips of his 10-year-old self training to be a fighter, stabbed a masked attacker in the eye, and licked his sword in the monologue. Excellent stuff.
It ends on a positive note as well. When the clips are done, Oscar, why did you use your monologue to show us these old home videos?
