‘SNL’ Adds ‘Wild ‘N Out’ Alum Mikey Day to Cast
[...] he replaces buddy Taran Killam
“Saturday Night Live” has promoted writer Mikey Day to a full-fledged cast member.
Day joined the “Saturday Night Live” writing staff in 2013.
Since climbing aboard, he wrote a lot of sketches specifically for Killam.
The two friends eventually penned the screenplay for Killam’s feature film, “Brother Nature,” together.
The loss of Pharoah means the series is currently without an actor to portray President Barack Obama, which it will surely need for most of the season.
While Killam did some time impersonating Donald Trump, show announcer and former cast member Darrell Hammond has got that role locked up.
