According to the Hollywood Reporter, veteran producer John Irwin has come aboard as showrunner for the series. Sean O'Connor, Marina Cockenberg, Sergio Serna, Mona Mira, Jen Burton, and Jonathan Giles have joined the writer's room with an aim to give the show a gender-balanced approach.

"I'm literally counting down the days until the premiere. It's 53. I'm thrilled to be collaborating with this all-star team of writers as we work to bring a new, authentic perspective to late night," Singh said. 

She will also serve as executive producer on the show along with Irwin.

In March, the YouTube sensation announced on TheTonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that she will be nabbing Carson Daly’s old 1:35 a.m. PST slot following his departure and the end of the 'Last Call'. Daly, who hosted the show for 17 years, had announced his exit in February.

It’s official. Ya girl is getting her own @nbc late night show... A Little Late with Lilly Singh. Thank you so much for being here. I am truly so grateful. ❤️
