Stephen Colbert’s Late Show will kick off with a bang, featuring A-listers from Hollywood including none other than George Clooney on its premiere. And that’s not all. The other big name to feature along with the perpetual playboy will be Donald Trump’s rival for the Republican presidential nomination, Jeb Bush, on Sept 8th. That should be fun; knowing Colbert has stated that he is keen on cracking some Donald Trump jokes that he’s not been able to find an outlet to.
The opening episode of the show will also feature a musical performance by Stay Human, a music group with the band leader of Colbert’s show Jon Batiste at the helm.
The fireworks won’t stop with the first episode though. They will, in fact, be brighter, more dazzling with one of Hollywood’s sexiest actresses, Scarlett Johansson featuring on the show on the Sep 9 episode. The Avengers star will be accompanied by Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk – a man who’s the biggest rockstar of the technology space as things stand. Musical performance for the night will be delivered by Kendrick Lamar, along with an interview.
This will be followed by an appearance of Uber CEO Travis Kalanick on Sept 10 with Toby Keith delivering the melodies.
Comedian Amy Schumer would be the next star on the list for the September 11 show. The Trainwreck actress will be accompanied by celebrated author Stephen King with Troubled Waters serving out the aural delicacies for the evening.
