Yahoo News Graham Norton Show special to host only TWO guests
The Graham Norton Show is really rolling out the red carpet and inviting Hollywood royalty onto its sofa.
On Friday, January 19, the late night chat show will welcome Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks.
Both actors will be promoting their forthcoming Steven Spielberg movie The Post, which has already picked up awards season buzz and nominations
And... that's it!
Yes, apart from musical guests in the form of band First Aid Kit, Tom and Meryl will be the ONLY celebrity guests; which, if you think about it, actually makes a lot of sense.
We mean, any more star power put on the sofa and it would FOR SURE crumble to dust.
The Post tells the true story of Katharine Graham (Streep); the first female publisher of The Washington Post.
With help from editor Ben Bradlee (Hanks), she races to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spans three decades and four US presidents.
The movie was actually on last year's 'Black List' (best movie scripts without a deal), and was rushed to cinemas in an incredibly quick - and practically unheard of - turnaround.
It's now primed to dominate the awards season.
The Post has already been nominated for six Golden Globes; with both Streep and Hanks up for the best actress and actor in a a motion picture gongs respectively.
Spielberg was nominated for best director, while the film has also secured nominations for Best Motion Picture, Best Screenplay and Best Original Score.
The Post is in cinemas on January 19. The Graham Norton Show featuring Hanks and Streep will air at 10.35 pm on Friday, January 19 on BBC One.
