Stephen Colbert post-CBS career developments

Overview

Following the cancellation of ‘The Late Show’ by CBS in May 2026, Stephen Colbert has transitioned into new professional ventures. In late August, Colbert released a video endorsement for Jimmy Kimmel to support his Emmy Award campaign for the Outstanding Variety Series category.

By mid-September, Colbert announced his first late-night television appearance since his CBS tenure, scheduled as a guest on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ for September 15. Additionally, Colbert has expanded his involvement in the technology sector through ‘Scripto’, a cloud-based scriptwriting software. Originally developed to address technical inefficiencies during ‘The Colbert Report’, the software is now used by major productions such as ‘The Daily Show’, ‘Last Week Tonight with John Oliver’, and ‘Saturday Night Live’ in both the US and UK.
