James Corden 'to host own late night talk show in UK' after Late Late Show exit

There's already speculation about what project James Corden will front next, following the news that he is to step down from the Late Late Show.

The presenter, 43, has hosted the popular CBS talk show since 2015, though it was announced earlier this week that he has decided to quit - with him due to leave in spring 2023.

The former Gavin & Stacey star has admitted he's not opposed to the idea of returning to the UK with his family, with this opening up the possibility of more presenting jobs back home.

And according to bookmaker Coral, it's likely that Corden - who rose to fame as a cast member and co-creator of Gavin & Stacey - will host his own show upon his return.

The bookies state that the odds of him hosting a late-night talk show in the UK next year are currently 1-2, but that's not the only project that it's rumoured he could present.

Coral has him down 3-1 to be the host of the revived Big Brother, with the popular reality show set to make its long-awaited return next year, as reported earlier this month.

The bookmaker has teased that Corden is 4-1 to host Match of the Day, whilst he's currently listed as 6-1 to present the XFactor if it returns to our screens in the near future.

A spokesperson for Coral said: "[He's] unlikely to be short of any work offers when he returns to the UK. We make him odds-on to host a late-night chat show on these shores."

And although Davina McCall, 54, and Rylan Clark, 33, are favourites to host the revived Big Brother, the bookies said the show could "go all out" to sign Corden instead.

The presenter announced his departure from the Late Late Show earlier this week, following reports that he had been offered £15 million to stay for another two years.

Announcing his departure on the CBS talk show yesterday, Corden said he suspects that next year will be a "good time to move on to see what else is out there."

He however said that himself and those on the show are "determined to make this the best year" they have had, adding that leaving has been one of the "hardest decision."

CBS president George Cheeks said said in a statement that the broadcaster wished "he could stay longer" but are "very proud" that he made the network his "home" in the US.
