James Corden enjoys homecoming drinks with Dominic Cooper and Justin Theroux in ... trends now
James Corden appeared to be in jovial spirits as he enjoyed a homecoming drink with his pals Dominic Cooper and Justin Theroux on Saturday.
The comedian, 44, was pictured for the first time in his native England after ditching Hollywood and filming the last ever episode of his U.S. talk show, The Late Late Show.
Hitting The Lansdowne pub in Primrose Hill, James kept things casual in a black sweater and jeans, which he teamed up with white trainers.
Actor Dominic, 44, opted for a similar ensemble but added a pop of colour to his look with a bold red jacket.
They were seen taking a stroll to the boozer, where they met Justin Theroux, 51, and and executive producer of The White Lotus, David Bernard.

The following day, he was seen in the crowd at the Brentford v West Ham United football match at the Gtech Community Stadium.
James was joined by his son Max as they watched the Stratford-based club lose two-nil against Brentford.
An emotional James was in tears while signing off on his final The Late Late Show after eight years at the helm, as he prepared to return to the UK and regain favour among the British public.
The TV personality ended his run on US late night television late last month by performing a piano ballad with several references to his 1,200 episodes.
His final guests included his pop megastar friend Harry Styles and comedian Will Ferrell, messages of support from President Joe Biden and a Carpool Karaoke with Adele.
PR experts have claimed James could be set for a big-money move to ITV and even replace rival Jonathan Ross as part of a charm offensive to 'win back the British public' after a slew of negative headlines while in the US.
Toward the end of the musical number last night, James' voice began to crack and tears welled up in his eyes as he looked into the camera.
He sang: 'And part of me thinks why not stay here forever? But deep in my heart, I just know. No more shows to be showing. It's time I was going. It's time. Thanks for watching, that's our show.'
The crowd uproariously applauded and gave him a standing ovation as the star waved goodbye for the final time.
