Who is on The Graham Norton Show Tonight? When and Where Can You Watch the Guests’ Movies?

The Graham Norton Show Guests, Friday 9 October 2026

Oscar winner Olivia Colman, Swedish star Alexander Skarsgård, Hollywood legend John Malkovich and The Bear favourite Ayo Edebiri are joining Graham Norton on the famous red sofa tonight (10.35pm, BBC One). With new films including Wicker, Wild Horse Nine and Clarissa to discuss, viewers will be keen to find out more about their latest projects — and, crucially, when and where they can watch the stars’ movies.

In the US, the episode will be available to watch on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 11 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time on BBC America.

The evening’s entertainment also features a musical performance from Orville Peck, who will perform his single Too Little, Too Late.

Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård – Wicker

Two internationally acclaimed stars are teaming up for Wicker, a comedy fantasy that brings together Colman’s celebrated comic timing and Skarsgård’s screen presence.

Colman, who won an Academy Award for her performance as Queen Anne in The Favourite, has built an impressive career spanning comedy, drama and independent cinema. Audiences also know her from The Crown, Broadchurch and The Lost Daughter, which earned her further Oscar recognition.

Skarsgård, meanwhile, has appeared in True Blood, Big Little Lies, The Northman and The Legend of Tarzan. His versatility has seen him move between dark comedy, action, fantasy and prestige television.

Their appearance on The Graham Norton Show offers a chance to hear how they approached Wicker, what audiences can expect from its blend of comedy and fantasy, and what it was like working together.

When and where can you watch Wicker? Check current UK cinema listings and the film’s official distributor announcements for its release date. If it is not yet available to stream, a confirmed streaming platform or digital rental date may not have been announced.

John Malkovich – Wild Horse Nine

Hollywood veteran John Malkovich is also taking his place on the sofa to discuss Wild Horse Nine, a dark new comedy directed by Martin McDonagh.

Malkovich is reportedly playing an ageing CIA officer in the project, which is attracting awards-season interest. McDonagh, the acclaimed filmmaker behind In Bruges, Seven Psychopaths and The Banshees of Inisherin, is known for combining razor-sharp dialogue, unsettling humour and morally complicated characters.

Malkovich has enjoyed a remarkable career, earning Academy Award nominations for Places in the Heart and In the Line of Fire. Other notable credits include Being John Malkovich, Dangerous Liaisons, Con Air and the television series The New Pope.

His collaboration with McDonagh promises another intriguing role for an actor renowned for his distinctive performances and ability to balance menace with absurdity.

When and where can you watch Wild Horse Nine? Check UK cinema release announcements for its theatrical availability. Once a digital or streaming release is confirmed, the film may also become available to rent or buy through services such as Apple TV and Prime Video, depending on UK distribution arrangements.

Ayo Edebiri – Clarissa

Ayo Edebiri completes the guest line-up, bringing her trademark wit and rising-star energy to Graham’s sofa to talk about her new film, Clarissa.

Edebiri became a household name thanks to her performance as Sydney Adamu in The Bear, the acclaimed comedy-drama about the high-pressure world of professional kitchens. Her performance earned widespread praise and major television awards recognition.

She has also appeared in Bottoms, Theater Camp and The Sweet East, while lending her voice to animated projects including Inside Out 2. Her growing list of credits demonstrates a talent for both comedy and emotionally grounded drama.

With Clarissa, viewers will be looking to discover more about her latest character, the story behind the film and how the project fits into her increasingly busy career.

When and where can you watch Clarissa? Look out for official UK release information, including cinema dates and any confirmed digital or streaming launch. Availability will depend on the film’s distributor and release schedule.

Orville Peck brings the music

Country singer Orville Peck provides the musical highlight of the show, performing his single Too Little, Too Late.

Recognisable for his distinctive baritone voice and signature fringed mask, Peck has developed a devoted following by blending country music with elements of rock, pop and alternative sounds. His releases include Pony, Bronco and Stampede, the latter featuring a range of musical collaborations.

His performance promises a stylish musical finish to an evening featuring some of the most distinctive talents working in film and television.

When and where can you watch The Graham Norton Show?

UK viewers can check BBC One and BBC iPlayer for the programme’s confirmed broadcast time and availability. The BBC iPlayer is also the place to look for catch-up viewing after transmission, subject to the programme’s availability.

For the guests’ films, cinema release schedules and official distributor announcements are the best sources for confirmed dates. Digital rental, purchase and streaming options can follow later, so it is worth checking the relevant platforms before planning a movie night.

With four major screen talents discussing their latest work, plus live music from Orville Peck, tonight’s show offers plenty for film fans to look forward to — and several new titles to keep an eye on.s
