A week before Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington’s passing, the band filmed an episode of James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke, which was set to air on Apple TV. Host James Corden said that the airing of the episode is not up to him, but rather, Bennington’s family.
And today, Linkin Park shared an update on their official Facebook page, saying that the episode will be available “this time next week.”
