Stephen Colbert announces the rest of his first week ‘Late Show’ guests

With little more than two weeks to go before Stephen Colbert makes his long-awaited return to television, CBS has announced the rest of his guests for his first week as the new Late Show host.

Earlier this month, Colbert announced that movie star George Clooney would be his very first guest on Tuesday, Sept. 8, even though Clooney doesn’t have anything in particular to promote. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was picked as his first political guest, since Bush is running for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.

The first night will also feature a performance from Jon Batiste and Stay Human. Batiste was hired as Colbert’s full-time bandleader.

Scarlett Johansson and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk will be the guests on Wednesday, Sept. 9. Kendrick Lamar, who was the final musical guest on The Colbert Report, will perform that night.

Thursday, Sept. 10 will feature Uber CEO Travis Kalanick and a performance from country superstar Toby Keith.

On Friday, Sept. 11, Amy Schumer and Stephen King will stop by. Troubled Waters will perform.

It will probably take Colbert some time getting used to working on Friday nights.
