Some ‘Saturday Night Live’ stars rejected ‘small roles.’ Will Ferrell sought them out

LA Times  

Will Ferrell at the New York premiere of Apple TV’s “The Shrink Next Door” on Oct. 28, 2021. In a Thursday interview with “Hot Ones” host Sean Evans, the “Elf” star revisited his time on “Saturday Night Live,” where he was a cast member from 1995 to 2002. “I made a point to tell the writers, ‘I don’t care, cast me in a super small part,’ because some cast members took offense to that,” he told Evans. But it’s also just an opportunity to potentially get a laugh.” During his tenure on “Saturday Night Live,” Ferrell thrived in main and supporting roles, easily becoming a scene-stealer. Earlier in the interview with Evans, Ferrell said he “just loved” being part of the “Saturday Night Live” ensemble.
