NBC announced it has already begun production on The Voice: Celebrity for debut in 2027.
Actress, TV host and singer Keke Palmer is set to host The Voice's special celebrity season instead of longtime The Voice host, Carson Daly, who will be serving as a producer.
The coaches who will star on The Voice: Celebrity are Queen Latifah, Riley Green and Joe Jonas, a pop icon who is the brother of two-time The Voice coach Nick Jonas.
While Joe will be making his coaching debut, Queen Latifah and Riley will be returning coaches after they sit in big red chairs for The Voice's 30th season this fall. The coaches will attempt to tap into these celebrities' hidden talents.

An extension of the longstanding series, The Voice: Celebrity will swap undiscovered talent for a pool of celebrities with pipes -- including actors, musicians, influencers, athletes, comedians, and reality TV stars -- competing to become the first "Voice" celebrity winner.
The participating celebrity artists will be announced at a later date.
According to NBC, Keke's "creative range, bold authenticity, humor and heart epitomize the one-of-a-kind season."
Keke already hosts NBC's reboot of Password with Jimmy Fallon for which she made history as the first Black woman and the first woman in 15 years to win the "Outstanding Host For A Game Show" 2024 Emmy Award.
NBC revealed that The Voice: Celebrity will offer "unprecedented access" to artists throughout the competition as viewers watch them step out of their comfort zones and reveal new sides of themselves.

A new "Voice Boot Camp" feature will give viewers a behind-the-scenes look as the celebrities prepare for the Blind Auditions.
Viewers will also have a glimpse into the "VIP Room," where competing artists will gather together to watch their fellow celebrities take The Voice stage and perform in real time.
Later in the competition, fans can watch the celebrities strategize and rehearse in the "Workroom" for the Battles phase of the competition.
NBC recently announced that, in addition to Queen Latifah and Riley, the other two coaches starring on The Voice's 30th season this fall are Kelly Clarkson and Adam Levine.
Carson will also be reprising his role as host for the original show's milestone 30th season.
