Chris Rock has previewed his return to Saturday Night Live this weekend with a new set of promos.
The former SNL cast member will host for the first time since 1996 on Saturday, as he is joined by musical guest Prince.
Rock teamed up with cast member Bobby Moynihan for a series of mini-sketches filmed outside at Rockefeller Center.
The duo teased that viewers should expect a very special tribute to Prince's risqué early work this weekend.
"When you think Bobby Moynihan and Chris Rock, you think of 'Erotic City'," this week's host quipped.
It has been announced that Prince will break the show's established format by performing one extended musical medley, rather than two songs staggered throughout the night.
Saturday Night Live airs at 11.30pm ET on NBC.
