Scarlett Johansson returned to Saturday Night Live (SNL) for yet another memorable appearance, this time in a parody sketch that poked fun at the hit HBO series The White Lotus. The 40-year-old actress, known for her roles in Black Widow and Marriage Story, has previously hosted the iconic comedy show six times and continues to be a fan favorite when she appears as a guest star.
This time, Johansson reprised her role as Ivanka Trump in a humorous twist on The White Lotus, reimagining the show as “The White Potus.” The sketch, which was a part of the latest episode, took a playful jab at the Ratliff family, a central part of Mike White’s original show. However, instead of Jason Isaacs’ character Timothy Ratliff, the parody featured President Donald Trump in the role, adding a satirical political element to the mix.
The sketch comes just after the explosive finale of The White Lotus, which aired the previous weekend with a gripping 90-minute episode that left fans talking. Johansson’s appearance and the lighthearted parody were a clear nod to the ongoing cultural impact of the show, and her comedic timing and delivery made the segment a highlight of the episode.
Johansson, who is no stranger to the SNL stage, also starred in several other skits during the show’s 50th season. In addition to her White Potus appearance, she participated in a hilarious sketch alongside Kim Kardashian, further proving her versatility and sharp comedic skills.
As a regular guest on the show, Johansson is well-known for her seamless ability to step into various characters and roles, adding her unique charm to the SNL lineup. Her husband, Colin Jost, is also a staple of SNL, serving as the co-anchor for the popular “Weekend Update” segment alongside Michael Che.
Looking ahead, SNL fans can anticipate another exciting episode set for Saturday, May 3rd, with Abbott Elementary star Quinta Brunson hosting and Benson Boone performing as the musical guest. For now, Johansson’s playful satire of The White Lotus continues to be a standout moment in a season full of memorable sketches.
