[ad_1]

My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman” has been renewed for a fifth season at Netflix, which will consist of two episodes in which the venerated late night host interviews Miley Cyrus and Charles Barkley.

“They did shoot a pilot with another girl,” Cyrus says in the trailer, likely referring to “Hannah Montana,” the Disney Channel series that launched her career. Upon showing that pilot to a focus group, she continues with a smile, “They weren’t relating with her. I love them for that.”

“Open the face up,” Barkley tells Letterman, coaching him on his stance as they golf together. “Open your face up!” Letterman retorts.

Since “Hannah Montana,” Cyrus has become best known for her music career, spanning eight studio albums such as “Bangerz” (2013) and “Plastic Hearts” (2020). More recently, she released “Endless Summer Vacation” (2023), which featured the Grammy-winning single “Flowers” and featured on Beyoncé’s 2024 album “Cowboy Carter.” She also covered “Psycho Killer” on the 2024 album “Everyone’s Getting Involved: A Tribute to Talking Heads’ Stop Making Sense.”

Barkley is one of the most famous basketball players of all time, having played for the Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns and Houston Rockets throughout his 16 seasons in the NBA, and for the U.S. national team in the 1992 and 1996 Olympics, before retiring in 2000. Since then, he has served as a basketball analyst on TNT.

Previous guests on “My Next Guest” have included President Barack Obama, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Jay-Z, Malala Yousafzai and Billie Eilish. Most recently, Letterman interviewed John Mulaney in a special episode separate from previous seasons. Each season of the talk show, which launched in 2018, has been nominated for the Emmy for hosted nonfiction series or special.

“My Next Guest” is produced by Jax Media and Worldwide Pants, Inc. Executive producers include Tom Keaney and Mary Barclay for Worldwide Pants, Jake Fuller for Jax Media, Justin Wilkes, Séamus Murphy-Mitchell and Michael Steed.
