The Academy Award nominated actor will be making his first appearance as SNL host.As comic book fans know, Ed Norton was replaced as Bruce Banner by Mark Ruffalo in The Avengers movie. It will be interesting to see if Norton does any skits making light of his days as a superhero on SNL.Norton will next be on screen in the 2014 feature films, The Grand Budapest Hotel and Birdman.

However, Michael Keaton, who twice played Batman, is playing the washed up actor instead of Norton in Birdman.In addition to Norton making his SNL hosting debut, Janelle Monรกe makes her musical guest debut.
