Bruce Springsteen’s removal from the upcoming Brooklyn edition of Jimmy Kimmel Live shifts a major musical draw to a political profile, giving Senator Chuck Schumer a prime television platform while depriving the show of a marquee act. The change follows the New York Post’s announcement that Mamdani will join Kimmel for the Monday NYC broadcast, a lineup that originally listed Springsteen among the featured guests. TV Insider highlighted Kimmel’s return to Brooklyn alongside finale episodes of ‘All American’ and ‘Futurama’, and IMDb listed additional guests Howard Stern and Tom Morello.

ABC’s weekly schedule confirmed the broadcast for the week of September 28, 2026, reinforcing the revised roster. The updates collectively reposition the episode toward a blend of entertainment and political commentary. Current reports indicate Springsteen is out and Schumer is in, with Mamdani added to the roster.

The show proceeds as planned on Monday, featuring Stern, Morello and the new political guest. Viewers can expect the revised lineup when Kimmel’s live Brooklyn episode airs later this week.
