Watch: Jim Carrey transforms into Joe Biden for 'Saturday Night Live' skit
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
SNL just gave us a first look at Jim Carrey as Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
Jim Carrey for president?
The 58-year-old actor will be playing presidential hopeful Joe Biden in an upcoming 'Saturday Night Live (SNL)' skit.
The late-night sketch comedy show released a promo that shows Carrey transforming into Biden, and let's just say we had to do a double-take.
Maya Rudolph, who will be playing Biden's running mate Sen. Kamala Harris, is also seen in the clip.

Alec Baldwin is set to make a return as President Donald Trump.
The 'It's Complicated' actor has been playing Trump since 2016, and recently told the Hollywood Reporter that he is looking forward to his stint as Trump coming to an end.
"Trump and his minions continue to try to keep alive this faded, bygone view of what this country is and should be. To me, they're psychotics," he said.
His portrayal of the president has received rave reviews over the years, but Trump is not that impressed.
"Alec Baldwin, whose dying mediocre career was saved by his terrible impersonation of me on SNL, now says playing me was agony. Alec, it was agony for those who were forced to watch. Bring back Darrell Hammond, funnier and a far greater talent!" Trump tweeted in 2018.
