Overview
- Netflix announced Monday it greenlit an untitled survival series hosted by Alan Ritchson that tests high-profile creators after modern comforts are stripped away.
- Ritchson, known for Reacher and Netflix’s War Machine, will also executive produce and guide contestants through outdoor challenges as an avid survivalist.
- Bunim/Murray Productions is producing the series with Jay Bienstock as showrunner and executive producer alongside Julie Pizzi, Rupert Dobson, Gayani Wanigaratne, and co-executive producer John Faratzis.
- No title, full cast, or premiere date has been set, and Ritchson teased the concept on Instagram with, “Let’s see if some influencers can handle my brand of crazy.”
- The move builds on Netflix’s survival lineup, including Outlast and the streamer’s audience for Alone, suggesting steady demand for rugged, competition-driven reality shows.
