Stand Up To Cancer will celebrate 10 years since its first telecast with a star-studded show.

The annual televised fundraising special has enlisted the help of Keith Urban, Reese Witherspoon, Mahershala Ali, Kathy Bates, Katie Couric, Jennifer Garner, Tony Hale, Marg Helgenberger, Ed Helms, Ken Jeong, Marlee Matlin, Matthew McConaughey, Maria Menounos, Jillian Michaels, Trevor Noah, Dak Prescott, Italia Ricci, Rob Riggle, Karla Souza, and David Spade to help raise money for its live-saving cancer research. Additional stars and performers will be announced in the coming weeks.

Academy Award-nominated actor Bradley Cooper will serve as executive producer for the special.

We are excited to have #BradleyCooper returning as co-executive producer for our 2018 telecast this September! . . Mitch Carbon, a pediatric cancer survivor who benefited from #StandUpToCancer research, met Bradley at our last show in 2016. Watch as they discuss the impact the show has made on them both and how an earlier SU2C show helped Mitch discover a treatment that saved his life.

“As someone whose family has been significantly touched by cancer, I am proud to again have the privilege of co-executive producing this year’s Stand Up To Cancer telecast,” said Cooper. “This show reminds everyone that you are never alone… that there is a community of support out there when you need it most. That’s the power of SU2C. Most importantly, the telecast showcases the significant progress being made in the fight against cancer, instilling hope in those facing the disease. This one-hour broadcast unites us all to raise funds for more effective treatments to save lives now.”
