James Corden is preparing to say goodbye to 'The Late Late Show,' extending his CBS contract for one year before departing ahead of summer 2023.
Nothing makes me happier to be thought of in the same breath as Mark Noble, but I would be undeserving of such praise.” “I’ll have been here for eight and a half years, he’s been at that club since he was 9. “All of my greatest ambitions for what it what [the show] could be, it’s absolutely surpassed all of them,” he added. “Out of respect for all of the [staff], I want to tell them that now and say that we can really go into this last year with absolute enthusiasm and passion and love,” he said. “Seven years ago, James Corden came to the U.S. and took television by storm, with huge creative and comedic swings that resonated in a big way with viewers on-air and online. I’m very fortunate I get to work with some people whose talents and gifts just blow my mind.” Conan O’Brien recently left the space after a long career behind the desk, and Jimmy Kimmel’s future is also uncertain with the comedian publicly discussing whether he will continue to host his ABC show. He is also a partner in Fulwell 73, the production company responsible for Hulu’s The Kardashians and Camila Cabello’s Cinderella, and stars alongside Sally Hawkins in Amazon’s upcoming comedy-drama series Mammals. “I’d like to try and write. “My bosses here at CBS have been incredibly supportive and extraordinarily patient with me while I made this decision,” Corden added. He has also been the consummate network showman, entertaining audiences from his nightly perch at Television City as well as the Tony and Grammy stage,” said Cheeks. “In my two years at CBS, I’ve had the privilege to see James’ creative genius up close and experience his valuable partnership with CBS, both as a performer and a producer. I’ve really been thinking about it for a long time, thinking whether there might be one more adventure.”
The CBS host, who took over for Craig Ferguson in 2015, will reveal more details about his decision during his monologue tonight.
Corden, with a little shakiness in his voice, admitted there "will be tears," and added that this was the "hardest decision I’ve ever had to make." It was going to be a journey, an adventure. In his monologue on Thursday night, Corden spoke about the decision, announcing that "this will be my last year hosting this show."
For a moment on Friday morning's show, Corden left comedy behind and opened up about the difficult choice to depart the show next year.
In the “Crosswalk the Musical” sketch, Corden dresses up as a character and performs a musical with celebrities in the middle of a busy intersection, surprising drivers. He recently hosted HBO Max’s “Friends: The Reunion” and wrote and starred in the long-awaited 2019 Christmas special of “Gavin & Stacey,” a show Corden co-created with Welsh actress Ruth Jones. “But … we are not leaving today,” Corden said. Corden revamped the show, which airs weeknights at 12:30 a.m. ET, with segments like “Carpool Karaoke,” “Drop the Mic,” “ Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts” and “ Crosswalk the Musical.” “I’d like to try and write. “It was going to be a journey, an adventure. “When I started this journey, it was always going to be just that,” Corden said. In the “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts” segment, Corden sits down with a celebrity and they take turns asking each other questions. The roughly 15-minute-long clips show Corden driving around while celebrities in the passenger seat sing along, sometimes to their own songs. Since then, Corden has thrown “the ultimate late night after party,” featuring a mix of celebrity guests, “edgy” musical performances, games and sketches, according to the show’s website. The other half is, the sadder news is … this will be my last year hosting.” I love all the people that work here.
