Jim Carrey as Joe Biden? Alrighty then.
The comedian will spoof the Democratic presidential nominee on the forthcoming season of "Saturday Night Live," Lorne Michaels, the show's longtime executive producer, told Vulture in a Q&A published Sept. 16.
Michaels also confirmed that Alec Baldwin will return as President Donald Trump — despite the actor's repeated insistence he hates the gig — and Maya Rudolph will reprise her Emmy-winning and well-received impression of vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
Ahead of Carrey's turn as the former vice president, we took a look at some of the show's most memorable impressions, and ranked them from good to great.
10: Jason Sudeikis as Joe Biden
Sudeikis, an "SNL" alumnus, is Carrey's predecessor when it comes to playing Biden — and he does a fine impression playing the politician as a smooth-talking, salt of the earth fellow. "The teeth do a lot of work there for me," Sudeikis joked of the overly large smile that accompanies his portrayal in a recent interview with Stephen Colbert.
But truth be told, we preferred him playing Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor — a long-running gig Sudeikis held before leaving the show in 2013.
9: Rachel Dratch as Amy Klobuchar
Dratch — who made her Klobuchar debut during "SNL's" parody of Brett Kavanaugh's public Senate Judiciary hearing — was a natural fit to play the U.S. senator from Minnesota. "You get a call out of the blue, like, you kind of look like this person, so I was like 'Yes, finally!'" Dratch recalled on Andy Cohen's "Watch What Happens Live."
But the "SNL" alumna says there really isn't a trick to the impression. "It's largely the wig and the look," she told a caller on Cohen's late-night show.
8: Alec Baldwin as Trump
Baldwin may hate parodying Trump on "SNL", but viewers love it. When Baldwin hosted the show (for the 17th time) toward the end of Trump's first year as president, the show earned its biggest ratings in six years. Sometimes, the script writes itself.
7: Maya Rudolph as Kamala Harris
Many "SNL" fans had Rudolph in mind to play Harris long before the "SNL" alumna made her debut as the U.S. senator from California. When she finally appeared last September, in a spoof of a CNN Town Hall, Rudolph nailed Harris' cadence while spoofing some of candidate's most famous quotations.
Viewers loved Rudolph's take on Harris so much that the comedian's name started trending after Biden named Harris as his running mate. Rudolph, who happened to be taping an Entertainment Weekly panel at the time, declared the choice as "spicy."
6: Matt Damon as Brett Kavanaugh
Damon first appeared as the now Supreme Court justice on "SNL's" season premiere in September 2018. It was a complete surprise since the actor wasn't hosting.
If you watch his performance, you can actually hear the audience's shock when Damon first appears, but it quickly turns to excitement as Damon makes a few Kavanaugh-esque facial expressions. And when the actor starts talking in a volatile baritone ("I'm a keg-half-full kind of guy!"), well, you can see why he was asked to come back later that year.
5: Amy Poehler as Hillary Clinton
We're used to Kate McKinnon's gold-star impression of Clinton, but it was Poehler who first captured the role during her time on "SNL." She has returned a few times since leaving the show in 2008 — most notably, appearing opposite McKinnon's Clinton in a sketch that found Clinton talking to a younger version of herself.
4: Larry David as Bernie Sanders
Who better to play the delightfully cranky Brooklyn native than another delightfully cranky Brooklyn native who happens to bear a passing resemblance to the U.S. senator from Vermont?
After David began parodying Sanders on the show, the two found out — via Henry Louis Gates Jr. — that they are actually distant cousins. Cue the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" theme.
3: Melissa McCarthy as Sean Spicer
When "SNL" needed someone to portray the bumbling White House press secretary, McCarthy eagerly stepped into the role. While notable for being an (appropriately) over-the-top impersonation, it was also notable because the president reportedly loathed the impression — largely because Spicer was being played by a woman. It probably didn't help that the Emmy-winning portrayal often found McCarthy referring to herself as "Spicey" and, occasionally, using a motorized podium.
2: Will Ferrell as George W. Bush
Like Poehler, Ferrell first tackled playing the 43rd president while a cast member on "SNL." But he has reprised the role several times since leaving the show in 2002. In 2018, as Bush's approval rating soared, he returned to "Saturday Night Live" to remind his "fellow Americans" that he had been "really bad, like, historically not good" as president.
1: Tina Fey as Sarah Palin
How good was Tina Fey as Sarah Palin? Well, Palin never actually said "I can see Russia from my house," but a fair amount of people thought she did. No, that would be her "SNL" doppelganger, who returned to her old stamping grounds (two years after leaving the show) at the request of the internet, basically.
