CBS said the Strike Force Five reunites on 11 May, with Letterman appearing on 14 May before the final episode on 21 May.
The 11.35pm episodes also feature Broadway performers Annaleigh Ashford, Christopher Jackson, Bernadette Peters, Ben Platt and Patrick Wilson, while The Strokes play on Letterman's night.
