    Jason Sudeikis, the Saturday Night Live cast member rumored to be leaving the show after seven seasons, will be staying with the show through next year.

    "Right now the idea is that Jason will go through at least until January," SNL executive producer Lorne Michaels told The New York Times. "He's a fiercely loyal guy, both to the show and to me," Michaels said.

    Sudeikis, 36, well known for his political impressions and impersonations, is often relied upon in the show to play Vice-President Joe Biden and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, though he is also well known for portraying The Devil on Weekend Update.
