Jimmy Kimmel Unveils 6 Summer Guest Hosts as Matt Damon Crashes Finale in Trojan Horse

Summary
Thursday’s final show before Jimmy Kimmel’s two-month break doubled as a handoff, with Tiffany Haddish set to start guest-hosting the week of July 6.
Six fill-ins will rotate through the summer: Haddish, Anthony Anderson, Ike Barinholtz, Colman Domingo, Jelly Roll and Rosie O’Donnell, whom Kimmel pitched as a “special treat” for Donald Trump.
Matt Damon then hijacked the episode in a literal Trojan horse, extending the pair’s long-running on-air feud while plugging Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, due July 17.
O’Donnell’s booking adds another layer to Kimmel’s recurring clashes with Trump, who has feuded with her for decades; she moved to Ireland after his 2024 re-election.
