Tonight's episode of
Saturday Night Live marks the come back of Daytime Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning actor Shia LeBoeuf following his first hosting appearance on the NBC sketch comedy in April 2007.
LeBoeuf, whose most recent credits include
Transformers, Eagle Eye and
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, is no stranger to the world of comedy. During his childhood, he created fictitious tales and practiced stand-up comedy around his neighborhood as an "escape" from a hostile environment. At the age of 10, he started performing "dirty stand-up comedy" at comedy clubs, describing his appeal as having a "50-year-old mouth on a 10-year-old kid.”

After growing up in California, he landed a starring role on the Disney series
Even Stevens, and then later, made the transition to film roles in
Holes,
Constantine and
I, Robot. Following his lead role in
The Greatest Game Ever Played, he was cast in
Bobby, which required him to do his first nude scene, and the animated movie and video game
Surf's Up.
Aside from the upcoming
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Eagle Eye and his
Saturday Night Live appearance, LeBoeuf will also be starring in the movie
New York, I Love You, which will be released later this year, and
Transformers 2, where he will reprise his role as Sam Witwicky.
Joining LeBoeuf and making their
Saturday Night Live debut is the rock band My Morning Jacket. Known for their heavy sound, eclectic mix of indie rock, country rock, and Southern rock, this group has received heaps of critical acclaim. Originally formed in 1998 in Louisville, Kentucky, My Morning Jacket presently consists of Jim James on vocals and lead guitar, "Two-Tone" Tommy on bass, Patrick Hallahan on drums, Carl Broemel on guitar, and Bo Koster on keyboards.
