Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? Will Premiere on HBO Max This Fall; Interviews Will Be Featured on CNN Sunday Evenings

CNN announced today Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? will debut on HBO Max this fall with featured interviews also airing on CNN.

The first episodes of Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? on CNN+ featured interviews with CEOs and media moguls, Hollywood legends and newsmakers across politics, business, world affairs, sports and culture, setting a high bar for the in-depth conversations both HBO Max and CNN audience will now enjoy. Guests appearing throughout the show's debut included former CEO of The Walt Disney Company Bob Iger, former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, author of the 1619 Project Nikole Hannah-Jones, actors Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, and many more.

"Part of the CNN brand is respectful, authentic and impactful interviews and one of the best interviewers in the business is Chris Wallace," said Chris Licht, Chairman and CEO of CNN Worldwide. "Chris and his team developed an engaging and compelling program that we're excited to bring to HBO Max and include in our CNN Sunday evening programming."

Wallace will continue to serve as an anchor for CNN, joining the network in January 2022 after more than 50 award-winning years in broadcasting, including 18 years with Fox News, where he was the anchor of FOX News Sunday.

"Who's Talking? is a rare show built for streaming that gives newsmakers the opportunity to have candid conversations and an open dialogue about the issues of the day and whatever is on their minds," said Wallace. "I've never had more fun developing a program and am looking forward to bringing it to both HBO Max and CNN audiences."

Praised as an "equal opportunity inquisitor" by The Boston Globe and "an aggressive journalist," "sharp edged" and "solid" by The Washington Post, Wallace has won every major broadcast news award for his reporting, including three Emmy Awards, the duPont-Columbia Silver Baton, the Peabody Award and the Sol Taishoff Award for Broadcast Journalism, which was awarded to him by the National Press Foundation. Most recently, he was honored with the 2020 Poynter Medal for Lifetime Achievement in Journalism and was named Mediaite's 2020 Most Influential in News Media for his "clear-eyed reporting, analysis and commentary throughout the year." Wallace also received the ICFJ Founders Award for Excellence in Journalism for "his unbiased, piercing approach to interviews." In 2013, Wallace earned the Paul White Award for lifetime achievement and service to electronic journalism from the Radio Television Digital News Association.

Throughout his almost two decades at Fox, Wallace participated in coverage of every major political event and secured high-profile interviews with dignitaries and U.S leaders. Wallace was chosen by the Commission on Presidential Debates to moderate the first presidential debate of the 2020 election season. In 2016, Wallace became the first journalist from Fox to moderate a general election presidential debate, and in August 2015, Wallace co-moderated the first GOP presidential debate of the 2016 election cycle along with the network's second and third debates.

Wallace is also the New York Times bestselling author of Countdown bin Laden: The Untold Story of the 247-Day Hunt to Bring the Mastermind of 9/11 to Justice and Countdown 1945: The Extraordinary Story of the Atomic Bomb and the 116 Days That Changed the World.

Before joining Fox, Wallace worked at ABC News for 14 years where he served as the chief correspondent for Primetime Thursday and a substitute host for Nightline. Prior to ABC, Wallace was NBC's chief White House correspondent and moderated Meet the Press, making him the only person to have hosted two Sunday talk shows. He also anchored the Sunday edition of NBC Nightly News. Wallace began his career as a city hall reporter for the Boston Globe.
