First Look At David Letterman's New Netflix Show, With Barack Obama As First Guest

Other guests confirmed for the new show so far include George Clooney, Malala Yousafzai, Jay-Z, Tina Fey and Howard Stern. While David Letterman hasn't hosted his own television show since the Late Show with David Letterman ended in 2015, he hasn't completely avoided the spotlight. His first guest? Barack Obama.

Dave Letterman returns with a new show "My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman' on Netflix".

Letterman first came to prominence as the host of Late Night on NBC from 1982-1993.

Produced by RadicalMedia and Letterman's Worldwide Pants, Incorporated, for Netflix, each 60-minute episode of My Next Guest is centered around one extraordinary figure whom the host finds fascinating.

Obama was an active talk show guest during his presidency but the Letterman interview will mark Obama's first appearance since leaving the White House.

In addition, part of each episode will take place outside of the studio, with Letterman attempting to "dig deeper" into topics related to his guests. His highly anticipated Netflix show, now revealed to be called My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, will begin streaming January 12, and the late-night legend has now also teased his first crop of guests.

"You never know when you might learn something, and that's what this is about for me", he says in the just-released teaser. Netflix's chief content officer, Ted Sarandos, told Variety that the company wants to increase its original offerings until it makes up half of the service's entire library. Netflix and the Radical brothers put this show idea together.

The show will debut on Friday, January 12th as Letterman sits down with President Barack Obama, giving credence to the show's lofty title.
