Jimmy Kimmel has signed a contract extension with Disney that keeps him on ABC through the end of the 2026-2027 television season, according to Bloomberg.

The agreement follows a tumultuous stretch earlier this fall, when Disney briefly pulled Kimmel’s late-night show after remarks he made following Charlie Kirk’s murder amid a pressure campaign by the FCC against local TV syndicators. However, after pushback from creative guilds and free-speech advocates, Disney lifted the suspension after nine days.
