I’m A Celebrity to get new Canadian spin-off series in 2027

Currently, the programme, which sees celebrities take on gruesome bushtucker trials in the Australian jungle, has a spin-off based in South Africa.

Now though, a source has told The Sun that a new Canadian spin-off show is coming to our screens.

It says fans can expect a big twist to the series, which will be called I’m A Celebrity Wild Frontier.

The twist will mean celebrities are paired up “as they navigate the rugged, untamed terrain and tackle ­terrifying trials.”

Presenting duo Ant and Dec will return to host the new show and it’s thought the series will air in 2027.

A source told The Sun: “This has all been very hush-hush, but everyone involved is really excited to get cracking with filming.

“The scenery will be stunning and the action explosive.

“Imagine the tension of two stars paired together, forced to eat, sleep, breathe and work together in constant near proximity.

“There will likely be fireworks and already some pretty big names are in the mix to appear.”

The arrival of the new series next year will mark 25 years since the first I’m A Celebrity series began in 2002.

It’s not unusual to see successful TV shows get spin-off versions or even series in other countries, including the likes of Married At First Sight which has a UK and an Australian version and Love Island has a UK version as well as USA and Australian versions.

The announcement comes after the latest I’m A Celebrity South Africa series ended in April.

During the live final of the ITV reality show, actor Adam Thomas was crowned the I’m A Celebrity legend but during the explosive episode, he was accused of being “abusive, aggressive and intimidating” by Jimmy Bullard.
