With roles in both ABC's This Is Us and Marvel's Black Panther, Sterling K. Brown is enjoying success in both the TV and film world in 2018. With that being said, the actor is not afraid to poke fun at himself, as he proved with his hilarious performances on SNL Saturday night. Brown took part in parody sketches based on both This Is Us (retitled This Is U.S.) and Black Panther.
Later on, he portrayed Common in a Family Feud sketch, where he played on a team of Oscar "losers" facing off against Oscar "winners" like Frances McDormand. At one point, Kenan Thompson, who portrayed Steve Harvey in the clip, referred to Common as a "TED talk set to music." Brown also threw down some bars: "It's an honor to be a part of this family / Despite our feud / We still put food on the table / Provide for the children / Make sure their future is stable." Watch the full clip below.
Common himself has not yet commented on the sketch, but we're sure he found it as hilarious as we did.
Brown expressed his thanks to the SNL team in his opening monologue “It’s SNL, you know. I mean, how lucky am I to be here, and on top of everything I’ve gotten to do in the last few years, it’s just like the icing on the cake,” he said.
