Who plays Baby Yoda on SNL?

This weekend’s (14 May) episode of Saturday Night Live featured another appearance of fan favourite character Baby Yoda.

The iconic creature from Disney+’s The Mandalorian has been parodied on the show multiple times, making his debut on the ninth episode of season 45.

Played by comedian Kyle Mooney, Baby Yoda has been a misunderstood figure with fans often confused by his monologues.

In this week’s episode, to promo the forthcoming miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi releasing on 27 May, Baby Yoda was invited back to share all things Star Wars.

However, things took a turn when he pivoted to instead talk about his recent experience going on an ayahuasca retreat – a spiritual journey that occurs after one has taken psychadelics.

Currently, in its 47th season, Selena Gomez is hosting SNL’s penultimate episode, with Natasha Lyonne taking over for the season finale.
