Watch Chris Hemsworth and Kate McKinnon Get Physical in New 'SNL' Promos
Marvel’s studliest Avenger and People’s Sexiest Man Alive, Chris Hemsworth aka Thor, makes his Saturday Night Live hosting debut on the March 7 episode. Clearly, his presence is getting at least one of SNL's funny women all hot and bothered. Expert Justin Bieber impersonator Kate McKinnon taped a series of promo spots with the mighty Thunder God that gave her plenty of chances to lay hands on him and vice versa.

Actually, in the first clip, all she could do was stare upwards at the 6’3” Aussie actor, mouth agape. But she finds her voice in the next clip, requesting that Hemsworth play the Johnny to her “Baby” by hoisting her in the air, Dirty Dancing style. (Too bad for her that dancing isn’t a prerequisite to being an Avenger — headlocks are.) In subsequent spots, Hemsworth makes it literally snow and also reveals his true purpose as a time-traveling genetically engineered human visiting our timeline (apparently, that pesky nuclear ion mainframe is in need of destruction… again). Can the entire show just be Kate and Chris hanging out in Studio 8H? We’d be totally OK with that.
Saturday Night Live airs Saturdays at 11:35 p.m. on NBC.
