Well, isn't that special: "Saturday Night Live" is adding a fresh face to its lineup.
Jon Rudnitsky, a 25-year-old stand-up comedian from New Jersey, will join the long-running sketch series as a featured player, NBC said in a statement.
Rudnitsky won the 2012 Laugh Factory Laugh Bowl, a college comedy contest, and participated in this year's New Faces showcase at Montreal's Just for Laughs festival.
He built a following on YouTube with parodies of "House of Cards" and "True Detective."

Season 41 premieres on Oct. 3 with host Miley Cyrus. Amy Schumer makes her hosting debut on Oct. 10, and former cast member Tracy Morgan returns on Oct. 17.
Morgan has been recovering from a traumatic brain injury after a June 2014 car wreck on the New Jersey Turnpike. He returned to television this year in an interview with NBC's Matt Lauer.
