Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly will sit down with Republican frontrunner Donald Trump for a special airing May 17.

Megyn Kelly Presents will be her first prime-time special for Fox News, and snippets from the interview will air the next day on her program The Kelly File. Kelly said in a statement she met with Trump earlier this month at Trump Tower at her request, and he was "gracious with his time and I asked him to consider an interview. I am happy to announce he has agreed, and I look forward to a fascinating exchange — our first sit-down interview in nearly a year."
