He's baaaack. Longtime Late Show host David Letterman at long last returns, full beard and all, with his new Netflix series, My Next Guest Needs No Introduction. Indeed they do not: Letterman's first guest in the two-hour premiere will be former President Barack Obama "giving his first on-camera talk-show chat of the Trump era," Entertainment Weekly reports.
Additional guests include George Clooney, Malala Yousafzai, Jay-Z, Tina Fey, and Howard Stern. The six-episode series launches Jan. 12 and will roll out with one new episode a month. Get reacquainted with Letterman in the trailer below. Jeva Lange
