Fallon and his team are teaming with Ford to spotlight Detroit’s cultural pulse, with a guest lineup that includes Michigan native Keegan-Michael Key, Pistons’ star Cade Cunningham, and Grammy-winner Common.

Reese Witherspoon dropped by, talking about her new season of The Morning Show and confirming renewal of Big Little Lies for a third season.
