Philadelphia’s Meek Mill will make his Saturday Night Live debut as the musical guest on Jan. 26, NBC announced Monday.

Adding more Philly flavor: First-time guest host James McAvoy, one of the stars of M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass.

OK, McAvoy’s not actually from around here (unless you consider Scotland a suburb of the city), but Glass was filmed here.

Mill’s most recent album, Championships, his first since being released from prison last April, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

SNL returns with new episodes this weekend, when Rachel Brosnahan, star of Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, guest hosts. Musical guest will be Greta Van Fleet.
