Jon Stewart has confirmed his final three guests on The Daily Show will be Amy Schumer, Denis Leary and Louis C.K.
Stewart’s choice for the last guests before he hands the reigns to Trevor Noah shouldn’t come as a surprise, as he counts them among his good friends.
“Remember, next week is our last week,” he said on the show this week, Washington Post reports. “We’re going to have a ball, and I can’t wait to show my appreciation at all the support and enthusiasm that you guys have given the show all these years.”
It was rumored that presidential hopeful, Donald Trump, would be appearing on Stewart’s final show. Although executive producers have confirmed Trump will not be appearing on the show, in a recent interview Trump claimed he was begged to make an appearance.
“I like Jon Stewart — I think he’s good. They’re begging me to go on,” he told The Hill. “I would do it ... the problem is it looks like pandering. It looks so false and so phony if I do it.”
The rumored capacity he would be involved in would be appearing as one of Stewart’s targets who tells him to “f—k off” in a pre-taped segment.
Stewart’s last show is Aug. 6 and Noah will take over on Sept. 28.
