Edward Norton performed a brief homage to Bill Hader’s iconic “Weekend Update” character, Stefon, on SNL 40.

Two Stefons On “Weekend Update”

Norton did his best attempt at becoming Stefon behind the “Weekend Update” desk during Saturday Night Live’s 40th anniversary special, but he barely lasted 20 seconds without needing help from the man who originated the character, Bill Hader. Hader appeared to give Norton some tips on how to be Stefon, saying, “You don’t cover your face. You make a tee pee for your secrets.”

The two were also joined by Stefon’s husband, and longtime “Weekend Update” host, Seth Meyers.
