The Broadway star says he spends the fan-created "holiday" reflecting on how grateful he is for the experience that changed the trajectory of his career.
"Every Oct. 3 is a time when I can reflect and literally have gratitude," the GLAAD Media Award winner for film trilogy Groomsmen says. "For the fans, for [producer] Lorne Michaels and Tina Fey for changing my life, for Lindsay for being the best co-star and, you know, just for everyone in the movie. [I] reflect and have that moment of, 'Wow, that's changed our lives,' and we're so grateful for it."

Lohan, 39, recently returned to the big screen this summer in Freakier Friday, a sequel to the 2003 Disney movie she starred in alongside Jamie Lee Curtis. And while the Lifetime movie star hasn't spoken to Lohan in a bit, he's still a big fan of her work.
"I haven't talked to her since her baby [son Luai] was born [in 2023] because, obviously, I was very busy last year, so we just haven't caught up," Bennett says. "Not because of anything, just because she's busy shooting. We're all busy."
He adds, "It's kind of like college. Like, how many people do you talk to weekly that you went to college with? Not many, but you still love them, and everyone kind of grows up, and they get their own lives, and we still love each other and support each other. We just don't get to see as much of each other as much as you want because you have your own lives happening now."
