It looks like someone here is finally going to go to bed at a decent time from now on. James Corden has announced that he plans on retiring from “The Late Late Show” after over seven hears of hosting. He plans on spending more time with his family in the UK. Here’s what you need to know.
Announcing his decision during a recording of Thursday’s “The Late Late Show,” which he began hosting in 2015, London-born Corden said he had signed for one more season, but would be bowing out in spring 2023 as it was a “good time to move on and see what else might be out there”.

He promised the show, which he said had “changed his life”, will “go out with a bang” and, he predicted, with “so many tears.”
Making the announcement, Mr Corden said: “When I started this journey, it was always going to be just that. It was going to be a journey, an adventure. I never saw it as my final destination, you know? And I never want this show to overstay its welcome in any way. I always want to love making it.”
Corden added, “And there is no other way to put it, it has changed my life. I love it. I love all the people that work here. I am so proud of what we’ve achieved. It’s been beyond my wildest, wildest dreams”
In a statement, CBS President and CEO George Cheeks lauded Mr Corden for taking “huge creative and comedic swings,” including the “Carpool Karaoke” videos in which the comedian and pop stars – including Adele and Paul McCartney – performed sing-alongs on the road.
“We wish he could stay longer, but we are very proud he made CBS his American home and that this partnership will extend one more season on ‘The Late Late Show,’” Mr Cheeks said.
So far Corden has made no other comments about his future or if he plans on returning to the small screen while in the UK.
