Seth MacFarlane has starred in a new slate of promos for Saturday Night Live's season premiere.

MacFarlane shares the stage with musical guest Frank Ocean in the clip and attempts to prove cast member Fred Armisen's claim that he is "the master of voices".

SNL's season premiere will see the debut of new featured players Aidy Bryant, Tim Robinson and Cecily Strong, who have previously worked with Second City.

Jason Sudeikis will return for his ninth and likely final season on Saturday Night Live as well.

Saturday Night Live executive producer Lorne Michaels also revealed this week that Jay Pharoah will be taking over for Fred Armisen in impersonating US President Barack Obama.

MacFarlane, Ocean and special guest John Mayer appear on the season premiere of Saturday Night Live, airing September 15 at 11.30 ET on NBC.
