Stephen Colbert’s second week of guests includes Bernie Sanders, the Broad City duo
Last week, Stephen Colbert confirmed the entire slate of guests scheduled to appear on his first week of The Late Show on CBS, and it was a thrilling list that combined big names (George Clooney! Amy Schumer! Maybe Pavement!) with lesser-known up-and-comers (The CEO of Uber! The CEO of Tesla! Presidential candidate/teen heartthrob Jeb Bush!). For his second week, Colbert will be taking a similar approach, although the presidential candidate will be of a much higher profile, and the celebrities will all be a little less famous than George Clooney.
On Monday, September 14, he’ll have Emily Blunt, Justice Stephen Breyer, and a musical performance by The Dead Weather. On Tuesday, he’ll have Jake Gyllenhaal and a musical team-up of Run The Jewels with TV On The Radio. Wednesday will be a busy show, with Kevin Spacey, a comedic team-up of Carol Burnett and Abbi Jacobson and Illana Galzer of Broad City, and a musical performance from Willie Nelson. Thursday will have Naomi Watts and, in what is probably a huge get that Jimmy Fallon is pissed about, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon. Finally, on Friday, September 18, Colbert will have Lupita Nyong’o, hotshot underdog Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, and a performance from the cast of Broadway’s An American In Paris.
Colbert’s Late Show will premiere on September 8 on CBS.
