Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon will appear this Sunday on longtime CBS newsmagazine "60 Minutes."

The show's official Twitter account sent out a photo Wednesday of Bannon talking with newsman Charlie Rose for the program.

Bannon, who rarely does interviews, was fired last month after less than seven months in his position. He returned to his old job as executive chairman of Breitbart News after his dismissal.

Mediaite noted this will be Bannon's first TV interview since leaving the Trump administration.

Bannon joined President Donald Trump's campaign last August and helped inject economic nationalism as a theme for his candidacy.

The interview will air 7 p.m. Sunday, with more airing Monday on "CBS This Morning."
