LONDON — Matt LeBlanc is going to be a presenter on Top Gear.
The Friends and Episodes actor is joining Chris Evans on the long-running motoring show, Topgear.com announced Thursday. The new show premieres in May.
Top Gear lost its star presenters Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond last year after Clarkson was dropped from the show following his altercation with a producer.
LeBlanc has appeared on Top Gear already; he is the fastest ever Star in a Reasonably Priced Car, managing to get a Kia cee’d round the test track in 1 minute and 42.1 seconds. He’s also driven The Stig around in a McLaren MP4-12C and presented a spin-off show Top Gear: The Races. Read more…
