Jennifer Aniston, Jimmy Kimmel, Amy Poehler, and Octavia Spencer have joined the upcoming ABC special, NORMAN LEAR: 100 YEARS OF MUSIC AND LAUGHTER.

According to the network, “honoring the life and legacy of the remarkable storyteller, activist and philanthropist Norman Lear, the one-night-only celebration features intimate conversations, special performances and surprise reunions that pay homage to the man behind some of television’s greatest stories in celebration of his 100th birthday.”

“I’ve always believed music and laughter have added time to my life. I’ve seen a lot throughout my 100 years, but I would’ve never imagined America having a front-row seat to my birthday celebration,” said Lear in a statement when the special was announced.

Additional guests and performers will be announced at a later date.
