Based on Paul Rudd’s recent entry into the five-timers club, fans should expect more SNL vets to return to help induct John into the distinguished club, such Tom Hanks, Candice Bergen, Justin Timberlake, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, and Chevy Chase.
Last Friday, Mulaney reunited with SNL cast member Pete Davidson in Los Angeles, where he got to meet his two-month-old son Malcolm Hiệp.
The two-time Emmy winner welcomed his first child with The Gateway actress Olivia Munn, whom he reconnected with ‘at church in LA’ in February 2021.

John was still romancing ex-wife Anna Marie Tendler when he first met the half-Vietnamese 41-year-old while attending Seth Meyer’s 2013 wedding.
Mulaney’s divorce from the 36-year-old multidisciplinary artist was finalized January 6 after six years of marriage, and she retained primary custody of their eight-year-old French Bulldog Petunia.
‘Everything that has transpired has been totally shocking and I think surreal,’ Anna told Harper’s Bazaar earlier this month.
