Kevin Hart to be first guest on ‘The Daily Show with Trevor Noah’

LOS ANGELES — "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" has set comedian Kevin Hart as the guest for its Sept. 28 premiere.

Comedy Central's flagship series returns next week with South African comedian Noah succeeding Jon Stewart behind the anchor desk. Other guests lined up for premiere week include New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, musician Ryan Adams and Whitney Wolfe, founder and CEO of Bumble.

Noah's debut will add even more heat to the late-night landscape, which has become decidedly more competitive in the past few weeks with Stephen Colbert's launch on CBS.

Trevor Noah, Steve Bodow, Jen Flanz, Tim Greenberg, Jill Katz and Adam Lowitt are exec producers of "Daily Show." Chuck O'Neil, who just earned an Emmy for his work on Stewart's final season, returns as director.
