James Corden is the new host of THE LATE LATE SHOW. The 36-year-old Corden comes to American late night television with a growing list of award-winning and critically acclaimed credits. He is a Tony Award-winning performer on Broadway, a BAFTA-winning star of a UK television series, a feature film actor with two releases this year, and an acclaimed host, writer and producer in several genres of television.

Corden recently appeared in "Begin Again," and starred opposite Meryl Streep, Johnny Depp and Emily Blunt in the highly anticipated feature film "Into the Woods," which hit theaters in December. Additionally, Corden hosts the BAFTA Award-winning UK sports-themed comedy game show "A League of Their Own" on Sky 1 and stars in, produces and writes the BAFTA nominated comedy thriller "The Wrong Mans," which is available on Hulu and airs on the BBC.

Outside of his native England, James Corden attracted international attention as the lead in the hit comedic play "One Man, Two Guvnors," performing first in the National Theatre and the West End in London and then on Broadway, which earned him the 2012 Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Play. His additional theater credits include the worldwide tour of "The History Boys" in the role of Timms, which he also played in the feature film adaptation.

On television, Corden starred as Smithy in the critically acclaimed BBC comedy series "Gavin and Stacey," which he co-created and co-wrote. For his role, he earned the BAFTA Television Award for Best Male Comedy Performance in 2008 and the British Comedy Award for Best Male Comedy Performer in 2007.
