Will Forte on "Saturday Night Live"

Will Forte has starred as one of the repertory players on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" since 2002.

Will Forte's history on SNL has produced many memorable sketches. Will Forte has created lasting characters in "The Falconer" - the once-successful executive who's mysteriously chosen to live in the woods with his faithful falcon, Donald - and the (very) soft-spoken politician, Tim Calhoun, as well as the creepily naïve office worker, Neil, whose ventures outside of work with colleague Jean (Kristen Wiig) quickly turn perverse. Will Forte has also brought life to "MacGruber" the resourceful, albeit distractable man, who can disarm a bomb with just about anything.

Most recently Will Forte had a cameo in the hit comedy "Baby Mama" with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Will Forte wrote and starred in the feature "The Brothers Solomon," opposite Will Arnett and "SNL" castmate Kristen Wiig. Will Forte's other credits include Broken Lizard's "Beerfest" and the upcoming "Brief Interviews with Hideous Men," written for the screen and directed by "The Office's" John Krasinski.

Will Forte recently had memorable guest starring roles on the hit comedy "How I Met Your Mother," NBC's award-winning "30 Rock" as well as a guest-starring role on "Flight of the Conchords."

Will Forte came to "SNL" from L.A.'s improv-sketch theater "The Groundlings" where countless "SNL" alums got their start. Will Forte's experience has been predominantly behind the camera - serving as producer on "That 70's Show" and as story editor for "3rd Rock from the Sun" and "Action," as well as working as a writer for "Late Show with David Letterman" and the MTV Movie Awards.

Will Forte currently divides his time between New York and Los Angeles.
