‘The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ Cancels Tests Positive For Covid – Deadline
The Late Show has been hit by Covid.
CBS has canceled this evening’s show after host Stephen Colbert tested positive for the virus.
The comedian noted that he’s “basically feeling fine” and is grateful to have been vaxxed and boosted.
Ozark stars Jason Bateman and Laura Linney were set to be the guests on tonight’s show along with Veep star Matt Walsh.
Instead, CBS will air a repeat featuring Josh Brolin and a performance by The Who.
The show was set to be on hiatus next week so it means that the next original episode is set to be May 2.
Yep! I tested positive for Covid, but basically I’m feeling fine- grateful to be vaxxed and boosted. Thank you for the well wishes. This just proves that I will do anything to avoid interviewing Jason Bateman. https://t.co/Vf5Ws5WVcE
