Dinner for Five is a television program in which actor/filmmaker Jon Favreau (Swingers, Made) and a revolving guest list of celebrities eat, drink and talk about life on and off the set and swap stories about projects past and present. The program seats screen legends next to a variety of personalities from film, television, music and comedy, resulting in an unpredictable free-for-all. The program airs on the Independent Film Channel.
The show format is a spontaneous, open forum for people in the entertainment community. The idea, originally conceived by Favreau, was loosely based on the famed Algonquin Round Table and intended to create a new kind of talk show.
Favreau is Co-Executive Producer with Peter Billingsley.
It is now showing in the UK on ITV4.
