So much for Barbara Walters’ retirement.
The former View host, who officially retired from daytime TV in May, is set to interview the father of Santa Barbara shooting suspect Elliot Rodger, ABC News announced Monday.
Walters will interview Peter Rodger, who was a second-unit director on The Hunger Games, for a piece that will air on an upcoming special edition of 20/20.
Walters officially retired from daytime TV on May 16, when her final episode as co-host of The View aired. The show was preceded by an array of farewell celebrations, including a dedication ceremony in which ABC News' New York headquarters was re-named "The Barbara Walters Building."
Despite leaving The View, Walters continues to remain a lifelong member of ABC News, contributing as news warrants.
As her official retirement approached, many of her colleagues were skeptical about how long she'd stay off television.
