James Corden

James Kimberley Corden (born August 22, 1978, in Hillingdon, Greater London) is a celebrated English comedian, actor, writer, producer, singer, and former TV host known for his warm persona and musical comedy. He first gained attention on stage—as Jim in the Tony‑winning One Man, Two Guvnors—and on TV as co-creator and star of the beloved BBC sitcom Gavin & Stacey, winning a BAFTA in 2008 . Corden rose to international fame when he took over The Late Late Show on CBS in 2015. His segments—especially the viral hit Carpool Karaoke—earned him multiple Emmy Awards and became cultural phenomena. He hosted awards galas like the Tonys (2016, 2019) and Grammys (2017, 2018), showcasing his energy and charm. On-screen, Corden has voiced lovable characters such as Peter Rabbit and acted in musicals like Into the Woods (2014) and Cats (2019) . Following his 2023 departure from the Late Late Show, he took a step back to write and perform on stage, returning to Broadway in 2025 in a revival of Art . Off-screen, James is devoted to family life with his wife, TV producer Julia Carey (married 2012), and their three children, whom he and Julia prioritized when they moved back to the UK in 2023 after eight years in Los Angeles. In 2025, Corden returns to voice work as part of the ensemble cast of Smurfs, charming global audiences once again.
