Wakanda's very own Black Panther is headed to Studio 8H.

On April 7, Chadwick Boseman will take on the hosting duties for Saturday Night Live with none other than the "Bodak Yellow" queen Cardi B as a musical guest. The announcement was made during an episode guest hosted by Bill Hader this weekend.

While Boseman and Cardi haven't appeared on the show before, both have been parodied by cast member Chris Redd and former guest host Tiffany Haddish, respectively.

"Who finna not go to the club to watch Bardi on tv?!," Cardi wrote on Instagram following announcement. By the looks of it, pretty much everyone: the news elicited enthusiastic reactions from folks online who can't wait to see what SNL cooks up for Wakanda (and Bronx) royalty.

Wakanda—and the Bronx—forever!
