Nevertheless, Letterman stayed tight-lipped about whether or not he had already been chosen as a juror … noting he’d need to proceed reporting “until Labor Day.”
Now, the humorous man may’ve simply been pulling our leg by saying he had jury responsibility for so lengthy … or he was simply confused and meant to say Columbus Day, which is the subsequent huge federal vacation.
Nonetheless, we doubt Letterman will probably be chosen to be part of a jury given his excessive profile. In actual fact, that is what made James Marsden‘s participation within the Freevee present “Jury Duty” so humorous.
For individuals who did not catch the hoax comedy in 2023 … Marsden performed an exaggerated model of himself alongside a solid of different eccentric characters, all of whom are tapped to be on a jury for a civil trial.
Nevertheless, there was one sole juror, named Ronald Gladden, who did not know the trial was a setup … interacting with Marsden and firm as if every part was legit.
After all, a lot of well-known faces have reported for jury responsibility through the years … together with Kim Kardashian, Lizzo, Taylor Swift, Gigi Hadid, Brad Pitt, and George W. Bush.
In actual fact, Oprah Winfrey, Tom Hanks and Anna Kendrick had been all beforehand chosen to serve on a jury … so, it is completely doable Letterman could also be within the crowd for the subsequent huge case.
