James Corden, still considered one of the newer figures in late-night television, is celebrating 1,000 episodes of 'The Late Late Show' (latelateshow) tonight. Corden tells Deadline that he’s feeling great about hitting the four-figure mark
show on March 23, 2015 and it’s been a wild ride, from jumping out of planes with Tom Cruise through to the success of Carpool Karaoke and newer segments such as Crosswalk Musical.
“I’m excited to see her. I’ve told her privately, I’ll never be able to thank her enough for doing the thing that so many artists wouldn’t do, which was to take a risk on this segment. When you look at it on paper, it’s lunacy, to be in a car with a host you don’t know and you’re going to drive round and sing her songs. We owe her a lot. I’m so thrilled she’s coming back for this,” he adds.
“What I love about the show that we’re doing now is that it happened so organically. When we moved back to the studio but didn’t have an audience, we made a conscious decision to make the studio smaller, bring everything a bit closer. People couldn’t go to the pub, or a bar or a restaurant, they couldn’t meet up with their friends, everyone’s doing Zoom in some sense of solitary existence so maybe we can be a place where they check in with a group of friends every night,” he says.
“I never thought it’d be as fulfilling as it’s been, that we’d get fans sending bespoke shirts to members of the crew or Nick Bernstein would open a race at his favorite racetrack and be a guest on every Malaysian podcast,” jokes Corden. The team still, however, doesn’t know who originally replaced the photo. “I have a suspicion. I think it’s the head of photographs at CBS. It definitely wasn’t the chairman of the network, it wasn’t Nick, it wasn’t anybody on the show and it wasn’t Lou Trabbie, who I would have assumed it was, who does our set design,” says Winston.
