Time will return to ABC for 2024.
The annual Time100 gala, the offshoot of Time magazine’s annual Time 100 list, will once again be broadcast on ABC this year, the Disney network’s fifth year televising the event. The Color Purple star Taraji P. Henson will be this year’s host, with Michael J. Fox set to receive the annual Time Impact Award.
The Time100: The World’s Most Influential People special will air on ABC Sunday May 12 at 10 p.m., and Time says that Dua Lipa and Fantasia Barrino will perform during the event. Patrick Mahomes, Maya Rudolph, Kelley Robinson, 21 Savage and other members of this year’s Time 100 list will also make special appearances. The annual Time 100 list was released this morning, with the annual gala set for April 25.
