Your first look at Jim Carrey as Joe Biden on ‘Saturday Night Live’

Canadian funnyman Jim Carrey is known for his spot-on impersonations, and his next role as presidential hopeful Joe Biden on Saturday Night Live looks to be no exception.

In an NBC promotional tweet for the show, Carrey — along with costar Maya Rudolph, who will be playing Biden running mate Sen. Kamala Harris as she’s done in the past — dons a wig and makeup to get into the role.

In 2019, Rudolph debuted as the senator on SNL, getting praise from even Harris herself.
