Maya Rudolph will host Saturday Night Live later this month.
The Bridesmaids actress was a cast member of the NBC late night sketch comedy series from 2000 to 2007 and has returned as a guest in several episodes since.
Rudolph will helm the February 18 episode of Saturday Night Live, with Brooklyn band Sleigh Bells serving as musical guest for the episode.
New Girl star Zooey Deschanel will host the February 11 edition, with musical guests Karmin.
Rudolph has previously credited fellow SNL alums Molly Shannon and Will Ferrell with helping her to become a star on the show.
She will join the rest of the Bridesmaids cast, including Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Wendy Mclendon-Covey and Ellie Kemper in presenting at the 2012 Academy Awards, where the comedy has received a number of nominations.
