My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman has revealed its entire Season 6 slate, and it includes an Emmy winner, a YouTube sensation, and “two” stars of this year’s hit horror thriller, Sinners.
Netflix announced today that Season 6 of its Emmy-winning, Letterman-led talk series will debut Tuesday, December 16, and profile Michael B. Jordan, Jason Bateman, and MrBeast.
Watch a Season 6 trailer above.
Jordan is bound to reap at least an Oscar nod for his aforementioned dual Sinners roles, while Bateman is coming off of Netflix’s decently reviewed Black Rabbit miniseries (and voices Nick Wilde in the box office blockbuster Zootopia 2). MrBeast… is, well, Jimmy Donaldson.
My Next Guest Needs No Introduction netted a two-season renewal this summer, taking it through Season 7. On Monday of this week, the series released a standalone episode featuring Adam Sandler, that does not count towards its Season 6 count.
As LateNighter was first to report, Sandler sat down with Letterman in early October at the actor’s alma mater, New York University. During that conversation, Sandler recounted his comedy beginnings and his time at NYU, and was reportedly spotted touring the campus amid production.
As you can see, the cadence of My Next Guest’s releases has been sporadic. Previously, the show produced a three-episode Season 5 that dropped two installments (Miley Cyrus, Charles Barkley) simultaneously in June 2024, followed by one more (Caitlin Clark) in April 2025. That season followed an April 2024 special with John Mulaney—which had been the first episode in over a year and went on to win an Emmy.
Across five previous seasons and three specials totaling 27 episodes, My Next Guest‘s interview slate has also included President Barack Obama, Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, JAY-Z, Robert Downey Jr., Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Dave Chappelle and Billie Eilish.
