Alec Baldwin Might Actually Return to 'SNL' as Trump

Alec Baldwin is backtracking on his comments about being “done” with playing Trump on Saturday Night Live.

The 61-year-old Emmy-winning actor previously said in an interview last week that he can’t imagine returning to the late night series next season. But now, he says it’s up to his friend Lorne Michaels, the show’s creator.

“Lorne is my dear friend, and if he wants me to continue, I probably will,” Alec told TVLine. “I get sick of [appearing as Trump] and I’ve whined about it regularly, because in the zeitgeist I’m a pretty political person and where I would normally put that energy is in voter registration, to work with MoveOn.org, to get involved in an actual candidacy and get more into that. But Lorne is my dear friend and [SNL] is like another home to me, so if they want me to do it, I probably will.”
