Comedy Central says on June 10, 2013 John Oliver will take over as guest host of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart so that Jon Stewart can tackle his first feature film directing gig: Rosewater. Oliver will handle the hosting job for eight weeks over the summer, with Seth Rogen, Armando Iannucci, Mavis Staples and Fareed Zakaria all scheduled to stop by.
 
“Don’t worry, it’s still going to be everything that you love about The Daily Show, just without the thing that you love the most about it,” said Oliver.
 
Oliver’s been a part of The Daily Show since 2006 and as a writer has won an Emmy as well as a Writers Guild Award.
