First Look: Stephen Colbert on Oprah's Next Chapter

He's intensely private and one of the biggest stars on TV...but you've never met the real Stephen Colbert until now. In this exclusive interview, Oprah travels to Stephen's home state of South Carolina for a never-before-seen side of this comic phenom. Tune in Sunday, September 30, at 9/8c.



On "Oprah's Next Chapter" this Sunday, September 30 (9-10 p.m. ET/PT), Oprah Winfrey travels to Charleston, South Carolina to visit with multi-Emmy Award-winning TV star Stephen Colbert for a rare interview with the man behind the alter ego seen on his popular late-night series "The Colbert Report." In the candid conversation, he speaks about his close relationship with his beloved 91-year-old mother, discusses his friendship with TV host and comedian Jon Stewart and talks about the creation of his TV character.

Winfrey joins Colbert for laughs and sweet tea on the porch of one of his favorite places in the world -- his in-laws' 150-year-old home in Charleston -- where he celebrated his wedding and spends Christmas with his family. The host of Comedy Central's critically acclaimed series "The Colbert Report" offers a presidential prediction and why he created his own Super PAC. Later, his wife Evelyn joins them for her first interview and reveals that although she doesn't allow his alter ego in the house, the "real" Colbert is one of the funniest, most romantic guys around.

"Oprah's Next Chapter" features Oprah Winfrey as she steps outside of the studio for riveting, enlightening and in-depth conversations with newsmakers, celebrities, thought leaders and real-life families. "Oprah's Next Chapter" is produced by Harpo Studios.
