Helen Mirren Can Be Funny [SNL Promo Commercial]

Helen Mirren is getting ready to host Saturday Night Live (SNL) on April 9 and in preparation for that role she has taken to a new promo spot that showcases the often serious actresses comedic side.

In the skit she talks about being horny, busts a move and otherwise schmoozes the camera.

You can soon see Mirren in the comedy Arthur which opens this Friday and sees Mirren star beside fellow Brit Russell Brand.

Here’s the SNL promo video:

I personally think Mirren is going to be hilarious and it’s definitely quite the departure from her most recent films which have included Love Ranch, The Last Station, Inkheart and The Queen, hardly a lineup of giggles.
