Hollywood star Drew Barrymore is set to turn host for a daytime talk show at CBS.
The actor will also executive produce the syndicated talk show for CBS Television Distribution.
"It is beyond my wildest dreams to have this opportunity for a daily talk show. I'm truly thrilled and honored to be creating this show with CBS," Barrymore said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Drew is a huge star and a breath of fresh air her show will energize any station's lineup. We're looking forward to working wit Peter Dunn (CBS TV Stations president) and the CBS Television Stations group to launch this premium show in fall 2020," CBS Global Distribution Group COO and CFO Steve LoCascio said.
The show is set to launch in late 2020.
In 2016, Barrymore was in discussions with Warner Bros TV for a daytime talk show, but it never made it to the screens.
