Lorne Michaels Doc: Pete Davidson Snubbed

0:00On April 18th, Morgan Neville dropped a new documentary called Lorne, all about Saturday Night Live creator, Lorne Michaels. In a recent chat, he explained why Pete Davidson didn't make the cut for interviews. Basically, the film was packed with voices already. Neville said he talked to tons of people, but after John Mulaney spilled everything, it just felt full, no room for more. Plus, Davidson was tied up starting his own project when they were filming. The doc stars big names like Tina Fey, Chris Rock, Jimmy Fallon, Conan O'Brien, Maya Rudolph, and Andy Sandberg. Neville kept it tight, zeroing in on stories about Michaels himself. Davidson opened up before in the SNL50 doc about his rocky start. After year one, he begged Michaels to fire him, feeling out of place among all that talent. Michaels hit him with real talk. Said it gets rough for the first three or four years, but stick it out. Davidson did, lasting eight seasons on the show. Lorne is hitting theaters now, so catch it if you're into SNL history.
