Jan. 16 (UPI) -- Saturday Night Live cast member James Austin Johnson played President Joe Biden in a cold open comedy sketch that saw the leader of the free world blame the recent surge in COVID-19 cases on people going to see Spider-Man: No Way Home in cinemas.
"America, I'm here to tell you, there's one simple thing you can do to make this whole virus go away: Stop seeing Spider-Man," Johnson as Biden said in the 7-minute segment, which was set up as a mock White House press briefing.
