Over the past few years, Taylor Tomlinson has consistently contributed to the industry highlight reel, from highly-praised specials to history-making sellout crowds all over the country, including Boston’s Wang Theatre. Now, she’ll be able to add even more star power to the mix, but this time from the prestigious glow of the late-night spotlight.
Announced as part of a segment on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday night (November 1), Tomlinson has gotten the nod as the host of After Midnight, a brand new game show inspired by the successful Comedy Central game show @Midnight, which ran on the iconic cable network from 2013 to 2017.
With an expected premiere date set for “early 2024,” Tomlinson will join the ranks as the newest late-night host, as the Colbert-produced show fills the 12:37 a.m. ET/PT vacancy left by James Corden after he ended his hosting run at the helm of The Late Late Show earlier this year.
