The Ellen DeGeneres Show has announced its Sept. 21 return date in a press release.
The daytime talk show will resume filming from the Ellen stage on the Warner Bros. lot without an in-studio audience.
“I can’t wait to get back to work and back to our studio. And, yes, we’re gonna talk about it,” the 62-year-old talk show host, who has been accused of creating a toxic work environment, said in a statement.
Ellen has been facing a lot of backlash due to an alleged toxic workplace at her show. In recent weeks, several execs were fired and Ellen promised her staff that things will change.
The Wrap reports:
Tiffany Haddish will be Ellen’s first in-studio guest this season. Also joining DeGeneres for Season 18’s premiere week will be Kerry Washington, Alec Baldwin and Chrissy Teigen.
Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Adam Sandler and Orlando Bloom are also on the early end of Ellen DeGeneres’ schedule.
