PaleyFest LA: ’Yellowjackets‘, ’Maisel’ & James Corden Round Out Lineup For 40th Edition; ‘The Mandalorian’ To Open
The Paley Center for Media on Tuesday revealed all seven TV series that will take part in the 40th annual PaleyFest LA, which is set to run March 31-April 4 at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland.
Disney+’s The Mandalorian (first announced to attend last month with Paramount Network’s Yellowstone and ABC’s Abbott Elementary and Grey’s Anatomy) will be the opening-night panel for the annual TV celebration. The Star Wars series will kick off its night with a special episode screening followed by a Q&A with showrunner/executive producer Jon Favreau and EPs Dave Filoni and Rick Famuyiwa, with other attendees TBD.
The rest of the PaleyFest LA lineup to follow includes Abbott, Yellowstone, Grey’s, CBS’ The Late Late Show with James Corden, Showtime’s Yellowjackets and Prime Video’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, the latter on closing night. All will feature special screenings or previews ahead of their Q&As.
Not all panelist lineups have been set, but most of the main casts of Abbott, Gray’s (sans Ellen Pompeo for now), Yellowjackets and Maisel are confirmed to attend, along with James Corden for Late Late Show. The Mandalorian and Yellowstone have yet to solidify their cast attendees.
The Paley Center said its members and Citi cardmembers will have access to advance ticket sales starting today, with general public tickets going on sale Friday at 9 am PT. More info here.
