Will Ferrell returns to SNL as Gordon Sondland
A legend returned for the latest episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live.
Will Ferrell, a cast member from 1995-2002 who has gone on to appear in a few movies you may seen, made a cameo during Saturday night's cold open, appearing as U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland alongside Alec Baldwin's President Trump, who was trying to prove that Sondland's impeachment inquiry testimony exonerated him.
Ferrell's Sondland wasn't much help for Baldwin's Trump — despite what appears to be his best intentions, he openly admits there was a quid-pro-quo. Watch the full sketch below. Tim O'Donnell
