James Corden just announced the (pretty unexpected) news that he’ll be leaving The Late Late Show in 2023. James addressed his departure on Thursday night, saying “When I started this journey, it was always going to be just that. It was going to be a journey, an adventure. I never saw it as my final destination, you know? And I never want this show to overstay its welcome in any way. I always want to love making it. And I really think in a year from now that will be a good time to move on and see what else might be out there.”
He added that they “still have a year to go” and “there will be so many tears ’cause this has been the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make, it really has.”
James also spoke to Deadline about the decision, saying he basically felt it was time to move on to “one more adventure,” and that he wants to try his hand at writing.
“My bosses here at CBS have been incredibly supportive and extraordinarily patient with me while I made this decision,” he continued, adding “There’s still some other things that I feel I want to do. I’d like to try and write. There’s some [stories] I’d like to tell. I’d like to see if I’m capable of it. The fact that it’s terrifying is the reason to do it.”
