NBC announced today that Mario Lopez will be joining Access Hollywood and Access Daily starting in September. He will be co-hosting the entertainment news show with Kit Hoover and Scott Evans.
Along with working on AH, he also signed an overall deal to develop scripted and unscripted shows with Universal Television and Universal Television Alternative Studio.
He has been a host of Access’ rival Extra for 11 years. No word who will be replacing him. Since this hiring has been rumored for months, I am sure they will be announcing his replacement very soon.
