The latest series of the chat show hosted by Patrick Kielty came to end recently
The Late Late show has now finished for the summer with it's return expected in late September.
But don't worry about what you're going to do from now on for Friday night entertainment as RTÉ has you covered.
This Friday night RTÉ will be showing the biographical musical drama Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody.
The 2022 movie, based on the late great Whitney Houston, stars Naomi Ackie as the titular character chronicling the life and career of the legendary singer tracing the journey from her gospel roots in New Jersey to global superstardom.
Directed by Kasi Lemmons and starring Stanley Tucci as Clive Davis, I Wanna Dance with Somebody highlights Houston's iconic performances, personal relationships and her struggles with fame and addiction.
The movie received mixed reviews from critics as some said it didn't capture Houston's essence and lacked the necessary ingredients that made her so fierce in the music industry.
Audience reactions were generally more positive and praised the film for capturing both the tragedy and glory of Houston's life.
