Late night: Five guests to watch this week – January 6, 2020
By Matt Moore
Michael B. Jordan
Jimmy Kimmel Live!
Tune in to Jimmy Kimmel Live! to see one of the biggest movie stars in the world. Michael B. Jordan returns to the show on Thursday, Jan. 9.
It’s hard to think of an actor who has had more success in the past few years than Jordan. Roles in projects like Creed, Creed II, Black Panther, and Fahrenheit 451 have made him one of the most in-demand actors around.
Jordan will be out promoting his latest film Just Mercy. It is the true story of attorney Bryan Stephenson, played by Jordan, and his efforts to exonerate Walter McMillian (Jamie Foxx) of a murder charge. The film has received positive reviews due in part to the performances of Foxx and Jordan.
Jordan also serves as a producer on Just Mercy and will also produce the 2020 film Without Remorse in which he will co-star with Jamie Bell. The actor will also revisit his Black Panther role for Disney+ in the animated series What If…?. It’s a busy time for Jordan but when he makes time for a late night appearance, he always has something interesting and entertaining to say. Expect more of the same when he visits Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week.
