- Hader goes Wilder on TCM
Fans of "Saturday Night Live" recognize Bill Hader as much for his sly smile and priceless expressions as for recurring characters like club kid Stefon and Italian talk-show host Vinny Vedecci. That his standout roles include smart and sharp impersonations of Peter O'Toole, Vincent Price and Jack Lemon is telling. One can only imagine that Hader's fondness for such characters is tied to an appreciation of classic cinema—why else would he risk alienating "SNL's" target demographic of frat boys and teens who are decidedly out of the age range of those likely to even recognize these impressions?
It should come as no surprise, then, to learn that the comic actor is indeed a movie lover.
He's been invited to join Robert Osborne on Turner Classic Movies as a guest programmer on prime time Wednesday, Sept. 22.
