A stellar line-up, as always
Seeing as how it's the final one of the year, 'The Graham Norton Show' is finishing strong with its biggest lineup so far.
Jessica Chastain, who also appeared on last year's edition of 'The Graham Norton Show' New Year's Eve edition, will be making her return to the studio to promote her movie, 'The 355'. The spy thriller was originally due for release in January of this year, but is now poised for a January 7, 2022 theatrical release. The film also stars Lupita Nyong'o, Diane Kruger, Penélope Cruz, Fan Bingbing, Sebastian Stan and Edgar Ramirez.
Her Royal Majesty from seasons one and two of 'The Crown', Claire Foy, joins Graham to talk all about her new BBC series 'A Very British Scandal'. Foy also stars in the quirky biopic 'The Electrical Life of Louis Wain' opposite Benedict Cumberbatch, playing the role of Emily Richardson-Wain.
'Game of Thrones' star Peter Dinklage also joins in on the night's festivities, as he promotes his new movie adaptation 'Cyrano'. In this romantic musical adaptation, which is directed by Joe Wright, he plays the lead character of Cyrano de Bergerac which tells a fictionalised account of the author's life.
The bumper line-up of Graham's New Year's Eve celebrations continues with the inclusion of 'Good Omens' and 'Twilight' star Michael Sheen. His latest film, 'Last Train To Christmas', hit Sky Cinema and NOW just earlier this month.
Also joining the final episode of the series will be Cush Jumbo from 'The Good Fight', who stars in Harlan Coben's newest Netflix serial drama 'Stay Close'; while top comic Joe Lycett is busy promoting his UK stand-up tour 'More, More, More'.
If all that wasn't enough, Northern Irish band The Divine Comedy will be on hand to perform their classic 'Something For The Weekend' to get us in the mood for ringing in 2022.
All in all, a cracking way to wind up a mixed bag of a year.
