Who is on The Graham Norton Show tonight?
Graham has some of the biggest names in film joining him on Friday’s show. Returning to the big red sofa is Dame Judi Dench, who will talk about her heartwarming film about old age, Allelujah.
The Greatest Showman and Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman is on the show to discuss his starring role in The Son, a powerful drama about fatherhood based on the play of the same name and a prequel to Anthony Hopkins’ The Father. Dame Judi – who starred as M in the James Bond franchise and scored an Oscar for her role in 1998’s Shakespeare in Love – will admit she now finds it “impossible” to read scripts because of her deteriorating eyesight.

The 88-year-old will be heard praising her latest film – which follows the lives of those working and living in a geriatric ward in a small Yorkshire hospital – as “a big cheer for the NHS”. She will sit alongside Black Panther star Michael B Jordan, who will promote boxing sequel and Rocky spin-off Creed III, in which he stars and directs.
Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas will be on the sofa to promote Marvel’s latest blockbuster Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, which is released in cinemas today (Friday). Schitt’s Creek and American Pie star Eugene Levy will discuss his new travel show, Apple TV’s The Reluctant Traveller.
Levy will reveal how he initially turned down the role of Noah Levenstein in the American Pie franchise because the script was “really raunchy” and the kind of film he would want to avoid watching. The Canadian actor, 76, will be heard saying that he was won over by those behind the coming-of-age comedy after they allowed him to tweak the character.
Graham’s musical guest this week is American singer-songwriter P!nk, who will perform her new single Trustfall.
