Earlier this year, James Corden revealed numerous singers he wants for his Carpool Karaoke sketch.

Among the names - which included Beyoncé and Sam Smith - was Bruno Mars, who confirmed on Instagram that he will be joining Corden on The Late Late Show.

Mars wrote alongside a picture of himself and the ex-Gavin and Stacy actor: “When an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. James Corden. Thanks for the lift.”

Of course, Mars won’t be appearing on the show just for giggles: he’ll be flogging his latest album, 24K Magic, which came out earlier this month.

The album follows 2012 chart-topper Unorthodox Jukebox, which featured hits such as “Treasure” and “Locked Out of Heaven”. Mars has been busy in between albums, releasing 2015 single “Uptown Funk” with Mark Ronson, co-writing Adele’s “All I Ask” and performing at the Super Bowl Half Time show in 2014 and 2016.
