Stephen Colbert has taped his final episode of The Late Show and was
joined by a star-studded lineup of guests.

Paul McCartney was one of the star attractions for the finale, marking
his latest return to the Ed Sullivan Theater, the site of The Beatles’ historic live performance in 1964.

McCartney has been back since with a six-song set in 2009 for The Late
Show with David Letterman above the Ed Sullivan Theater’s marquee. He
also appeared on Colbert’s The Late Show in 2019 to promote his
children’s book Hey Granddude!.

The musician has had a busy week in New York given that he performed at
the season finale of Saturday Night Live last weekend.

Jon Batiste, the former Late Show bandleader, is understood to have
also
performed.

Deadline understands that there were a number of A-list cameos during
the show, which is expected to run 17 minutes longer than its usual
hour. These included Paul Rudd, who has appeared on the show over a
dozen times, Bryan Cranston and Ryan Reynolds, who is thought to have
played tambourine during the show.

Expect plenty more star-studded appearances as Colbert closes out the franchise, which began airing on CBS in 1993.

Unlike normal episodes of the late-night talker, security was tight
outside the studio, which was under heavy secrecy. The stage door had a
large black security tower against it with heavy curtains that security
guards were drawing around each car as stars exited.
