Olympian Jordan Chiles Addresses Whether She’ll Compete in 2028 Olympics After Medal Controversy
Stanley Tucci is saying “ciao” to the Olympics.
The Devil Wears Prada star will be heading to Italy next year to help NBC cover the 2026 Milan-Cortina winter games, the Emmy-winning actor announced on Today‘s Sept. 15 episode.
“You know where else we’re going to be rolling very soon?” he posed in a pre-recorded video on the morning news show. “In Italy, at the Milan-Cortina Olympics, right here on NBC. So, please join me for prime time in Milan. There’ll be great food, great drink and, of course, incredible competition. I’m looking forward to it. I hope you are, too.”
According to the network, Tucci—whose parents are both of Italian heritage—will “present travelogue-style segments highlighting the food, traditions and history of the regions hosting the Winter Olympics.”
And Tucci couldn’t be more excited to share the culture of his homeland with millions of sports fans around the globe.
“It’s been my passion to learn about the people of Italy by traversing the country and savoring its food,” he said in a Sept. 15 press release. “But this time, I’ll have a guest with me—the world.”
