Actor Mike Myers returned to this week's edition of Saturday Night Live playing Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk in a parody of alleged tension between the billionaire and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Myers referenced his famous Dr. Evil character from the Austin Powers movies during a portion of the sketch about Tesla's stock dropping as Musk heads up Trump's new Department of Government Efficiency.

Trump said on Friday that there hasn't been a "clash" between Rubio and Musk, calling it fake news.

Myers, who was a Saturday Night Live cast member from 1989 to 1995, first played Musk in a sketch on March 1 about the Oval Office meeting between Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
