Saturday Night Live had viewers in hysterics with a parody of Nicole Kidman’s 2021 AMC commercial.

In a skit in the show’s season premiere on Saturday, 1 October, Chloe Fineman played the Australian actor in a take on the US cinema theatre chain’s commercial.

Like the original advertisement, Ms Fineman’s character talks about her love of the cinema, amid people applauding and saluting. SNL cast member Kenan Thompson is seen looking confused.

The cult-like crowd then repeats the phrase “heartbreak feels good in a place like this”, from the original.

Putin apologizes for 'tragic incident' but stops short of saying Azerbaijani plane was shot down
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday apologized to his Azerbaijani counterpart for what he called a “tragic incident” following the crash of an Azerbaijani airliner in Kazakhstan that killed 38 people, but stopped short of acknowledging that Moscow was responsible. Putin's apology came as allegations mounted that the plane had been shot down by Russian air defenses attempting to deflect a Ukrainian drone strike near Grozny, the regional capital of the Russian republic of Chechnya. An official Kremlin statement issued Saturday said that air defense systems were firing near Grozny airport as the airliner “repeatedly” attempted to land there on Wednesday.
