Thompson stated that while he might have an appreciation for new talent, he’s happy to stay in his role on SNL and not quite ready to start doing auditions for acting roles again.
Kenan Thompson had high praise for Saturday Night Live featured player Chris Redd, and seems to think him leaving the show would give Redd more opportunities to shine.
Thompson, who obviously seems to be toying with the idea of hanging it up to make way for new talent, later made it clear to THR that he has no specific plans for an exit at this time.
