James Van Der Beek

Fox will re-air its powerful two-hour special The Real Full Monty in tribute to James Van Der Beek, who was courageously battling colorectal cancer at the time of the special and joined in the hope of inspiring others to get tested early. The encore celebrates his participation in the unforgettable event that brought together a group of male celebrities to raise awareness for cancer testing and research. It honors Van Der Beek's strength, humor and heart, reaffirming the importance of early detection, and through a QR code that will be visible throughout the broadcast, encourages viewers to support the battle against colorectal cancer by donating to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance. The Real Full Monty encore will air Wednesday, February 18 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on Fox.

Inspired by the beloved, award-winning 1997 film, The Real Full Monty features Emmy- and Golden Globe-nominated actor, comedian and producer Anthony Anderson, who also executive produced, rallying a cast of fellow celebrities to step far outside their comfort zones for a meaningful cause. The special also stars Anderson alongside Taye Diggs, NFL's Chris Jones, Tyler Posey, Bruno Tonioli and James Van Der Beek.
