James Corden has announced the list of guests that will be helping him say goodbye to The Late Late Show over the next two weeks.
In April last year James, 44, announced he would be quitting the talk show after eight years at the helm.
The comedian and Cats actor has hosted the late night US programme since 2015 but revealed at the time he had signed a one-year extension.
His final show will be on Thursday, April 27 at 12.37am ET/PT.
Now it’s been revealed just who will be appearing across the final 12 episodes.
Famous faces set to appear include Ben Affleck, Bryan Cranston, Josh Gad, Jennifer Garner, Brett Goldstein, Kate Hudson, Mila Kunis, Seth Meyers, Billy Porter and Sharon Stone.
Allison Janney – who has appeared as a guest on the show more than anyone else- will maintain her record when she makes her 15th appearance.
The Kardashian family, whom have each appeared separately during the duration of the show, will also participate in a Take a Break segment.
Tom Cruise will join James for a previously announced sketch, which will see them hitting the stage for an epic musical performance during The Lion King at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood.
Ahead of the final episode, the hugely popular Carpool Karaoke segment will be celebrated with a one-hour primetime special, The Last Last Late Show with James Corden Carpool Karaoke Special at 10 pm EST, which will be followed by the final episode of the show.
K-Pop supergroup BLACKPINK confirmed to appear, while photos released in recent days also show the host filming in a car with Adele.
Recently speaking about the final episodes, James said his last guest was going to be ‘a huge pop star’.
‘There are some really fun things to come. Twelve shows, three Carpool Karaoke’s, last Crosswalk the Musical. A really big bit, with I think maybe the biggest movie star in the world,’ he told ET.
He added that he could ‘cry his eyes out’ thinking about the final shows, but was contending with mixed feelings about winding up his time on the show.
‘It’s such an exciting feeling and terrifying and it’s just excited and scared at the same time,’ he said.
‘But I think that’s probably when the most exciting things happen. I haven’t been this scared since I decided to take the show and move to America to do it.
‘And that’s been a life-changing experience.’
Previously speaking about his decision to quit his talk show, James said that he wanted to spend time with his family and put roots down in London.
He told Drew Barrymore on her talk show it had not been ‘easy in any way’ to walk away but he ‘never ever considered it to be the final destination’.
The Late Late Show with James Corden airs on CBS in the US.
