In the closing moments of Saturday Night Live, Spider-Man: Far From Home star Jake Gyllenhaal surprised the crowd at 30 Rock with a high-flying surprise appearance. During a skit involving John Mulaney, Pete Davidson, and Chris Redd discussing the woes about eating airport sushi, Gyllenhaal made his grand arrival. One thing musical number led to another and suddenly, Gyllenhaal flew into action while suspending from wires affixed to the ceiling. He then proceeded to sing a parody of Wicked and as one might expect, Twitter quickly lit ablaze.
