TL;DR

Timothée Chalamet used his SNL monologue to promote his upcoming movie musical, "Wonka," following the end of the 118-day SAG-AFTRA strike. After joking about his perfume commercial directed by Martin Scorsese, Chalamet sang a song about shameless self-promotion and plugged the premiere of "Wonka." He also mentioned Scorsese's film "Killers of the Flower Moon" and his own movie "Dune: Part Two." The release of "Dune" was pushed back due to the strike. The monologue was interrupted by a rap duet and featured appearances by Marcello Hernandez, Punkie Johnson as Nicki Minaj, and Kenan Thompson as himself.
