Stephen Colbert has finally locked in the end of “The Late Show” … with the curtain set to fall for good on May 21, closing out a CBS late-night run that’s lasted more than 30 years.
Stephen broke the news during a taping of “Late Night With Seth Meyers” on Monday … officially putting a date on the farewell that’s been looming since last summer.
Remember, CBS and parent company Paramount Global announced plans to cancel the show back in July, blaming straight-up financial reasons.
But the move raised eyebrows, as it followed Colbert publicly slamming Paramount for settling Donald Trump’s “60 Minutes” lawsuit … calling it a “big fat bribe” from the company.
