If you didn't already know, David Letterman has made a talk show come back!

George Clooney has been confirmed as the second guest to appear on his new Netflix series My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman.

The 56-year-old actor has appeared on the show and discussed his early years as a child, his journey through Hollywood and recalled meeting his wife Amal in 2013 at his home in Lake Como, Italy.

“I didn’t leave the house. No, it’s the wildest thing. A mutual friend of ours said, ‘I’m stopping by and can I bring my friend?’ And I was like, ‘Of course.’ I got a call from my agent who called me and said, ‘I met this woman who’s coming to your house who you’re gonna marry,’” George tells David.

“And the funniest thing was my mom and dad were visiting, so my parents were there, and we just talked and we stayed up all night talking and then, you know, I got her email address ‘cause she was going to send me some pictures of my parents and then, we started writing and I didn’t really, I didn’t know if she wanted to go out with me. I just thought, you know, we were buddies.”

The second episode of My Next Guest Needs No Introduction will air on Netflix Friday, Feb 9th.
