TV Talk: Michael Keaton on 'SNL,' 'Sunday Night Football' this weekend

Pittsburgh native Michael Keaton will make multiple appearances on NBC this weekend, beginning with hosting “Saturday Night Live” (11:30 p.m. Saturday, WPXI-TV) and continuing Sunday as part of the cinematic opening sequence (around 8:17 p.m. Sunday) for the New York Jets-Pittsburgh Steelers game on “Sunday Night Football” (coverage starts at 7 p.m. Sunday, NBC, Peacock).

Keaton, who’s currently starring in the movies “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” and “Goodrich,” touts his Pittsburgh roots in the “SNF” opening.

“When you’re from where I’m from — Western Pa., just outside of Pittsburgh, like a 15-minute drive to the stadium … football is kind of in your blood,” Keaton says. “The Steelers unite us all. And no matter where you end up. It’s like it’s always part of your identity, you know? Now tonight, the circus comes to town. I don’t mean any disrespect, or to demean any new, big acquisitions, but if you know you know, and so I think I can say with authority that all is not right in Gotham. You do realize the Steelers have had three coaches in the last 55 years, and the Jets have had two in the last two weeks. There aren’t enough things that unite us anymore. Come to Pittsburgh, you’ll see how great it is when something does that.”

Keaton’s “SNL” gig will mark the actor’s fourth time hosting the show. Billie Eilish will be the show’s musical guest.
