Stephen Colbert is going out with a bang, literally. The beloved late-night host has lined up a star-studded finale for his final episodes of “The Late Show,” set to conclude on May 21.
The all-star lineup includes some of the greatest minds in late-night television: David Letterman, the king of irreverent humor who paved the way for Colbert; Jimmy Kimmel, a master of quick-witted banter; Seth Meyers, a sharp critic of the powerful and the powerless; Jimmy Fallon, a master of feel-good, pop-culture fun; and John Oliver, a fearless advocate for justice and truth.
The announcement comes just a week after Variety revealed that Stephen Colbert will host “The Late Show” for the final time, marking the end of a remarkable five-year run. Last year, CBS canceled the show, but it’s clear that Colbert is determined to send his loyal audience off with a bang.
