Maya Rudolph won an Emmy for playing Vice President Kamala Harris. And now, many of us are wishing and hoping that the VP will win the Presidential election in November.
But before we get to November 5th, there are going to be several Saturday Night Live episodes, so Lorne Michaels has asked Rudolph to reprise her role. And she said yes!
However, her acceptance of the role came at a price. According to Deadline, production has been halted on the third season of the actress’ heartfelt hilarious sitcom Loot on Apple TV+.
I get why she chose to do it. But I think it is fucked up that they had to halt production, which was slated to start in August, on the show because she committed to do so that she could do SNL. Hollywood is hurting due to the strikes. So, the people who work on the show probably depended on that money, and now they are not going to get it until at least late November, if not 2025. I hope she donates her paycheck to them because every little helps.
