JAMIE FOXX AND CHANNING TATUM TO HEADLINE "JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE: AFTER THE OSCARS(R)" SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 24 ON ABC
The 8th annual "Jimmy Kimmel Live: After the Oscars" special airs live on ABC SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 24 with guests including Academy Award(R) Winner Jamie Foxx, Channing Tatum and "Good Morning America" host Robin Roberts.
Last year "Jimmy Kimmel Live: After the Academy Awards" premiered a trailer for "Movie: The Movie" -- the biggest, most star-studded and spectacular non-existent film the world has ever seen. "Movie: The Movie" has garnered nearly 20 million views on YouTube alone to help make last year's post-Oscars special the most successful in "JKL" history.
This year Kimmel will debut the highly anticipated sequel, entitled "Movie: The Movie Twovie," starring Bradley Cooper, Jessica Chastain, Jude Law, Salma Hayek, John Krasinski, Samuel L. Jackson and many more. This promises to be the biggest, most star-studded imaginary film of all time.
Kimmel's previous post-Oscar specials have featured Oprah Winfrey, Tom Cruise, Ben Affleck, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Jon Stewart, Billy Crystal and Ellen DeGeneres.
"Jimmy Kimmel Live: After the Oscars" airs live on Oscar Sunday, February 24 from 12:05-1:05 a.m., ET after the late local news, and at 10:00 p.m., PT on ABC.
