Nick Cannon is joining the daytime TV ranks.
The multi-hyphenate has signed a deal to host and produce a nationally syndicated daytime talk show starting in 2020, according to The Wrap.
Cannon’s production company, Ncredible Entertainment, will co-produce the series with Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury.
“We are excited to be able to announce this collaboration with Nick, who has proven himself to be such a dominant creative and entrepreneurial force across film, primetime TV, music, comedy, stage and online platforms,” Debmar-Mercury co-presidents Mort Marcus and Ira Bernstein said in a statement Wednesday.

The Masked Singer emcee’s previous hosting duties include Wild ‘N Out, and America’s Got Talent.
“After leaving America’s Got Talent, I wanted to focus on developing my own talk show,” Cannon said. “I’ve always dreamed of a platform where I can speak to America and discuss pop culture, as well as the topics on everyone’s minds.”
The actor-host-producer said he decided on daytime after filling in for Wendy Williams.
“When I had the opportunity to guest host at my good friend Wendy Williams’ show this year, I experienced the energy and excitement of a daytime talk show and instantly knew I found my audience,” he explained.
He currently hosts Nick Cannon Mornings on Los Angeles radio station Power 106 (KPWR).
