Gary Lineker is set to appear on a new ITV show called "Assembly" where he will face his "most honest interview yet".
The former England striker will field questions from people who are neurodivergent, autistic and/or learning disabled.
This comes as Lineker's 25-year stint as Match of the Day host will end this summer.
The move to ITV won't see him heading up their football coverage, but rather participating as the first confirmed celebrity guest on this new format.

ITV has previously tried to acquire Lineker's services, once offering him a chance to appear on Celebrity Big Brother.
An ITV statement described the show's approach: "Carefully considered PR fluff won't cut it on this show. And the celebrities can expect plenty of mischief and surprises once they get in the hotseat."
After his football and broadcasting career, there's "no end to the stories that Lineker might share" on the programme.
Lineker will appear alongside other celebrities including former Doctor Who star David Tennant.
