The Rest Is Football has revealed the list of guests that will join hosts Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards for its forthcoming Netflix daily TV show during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
They will be joined by regular guest Joe Cole, as well as special guests Harry Maguire, Frank Lampard, Millie Bright, Patrick Vieira, Romesh Ranganathan and Niall Horan, with more guests still to be announced.
The Netflix show will also include reporters Rob Jones and Alex Aljoe.
Jones will report directly from the England camp and fan zones, while Aljoe will follow teams from across the tournament.
The Rest is Football will stream daily on Netflix during the 2026 FIFA World Cup from 6am BST, starting 10 June.
It will be filmed in Times Square, New York and feature match analysis, guests, exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes access from the world’s biggest sporting event.
Shearer said: “The World Cup is as big as it gets, and bringing The Rest Is Football to Netflix during the tournament is a brilliant opportunity to get stuck into the football properly. There’ll be huge performances, big decisions, pressure moments and plenty for supporters to debate, exactly what we love talking about.”
Richards added: “I’m absolutely buzzing for this. World Cup, Netflix, New York and The Rest Is Football on a massive stage, what more could you want? It’s going to have everything people love about the show: proper analysis, big opinions, dressing-room stories and, knowing us, plenty of laughs as well.”
The series will be produced by Goalhanger.
