- Star Search is coming back!
- Netflix ordered a reboot of the popular ’80s and ’90s show that launched the careers of Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Dave Chappelle, Christina Aguilera, Adam Sandler and many others.
- The show will air live twice a week with a livestream that includes viewer voting that determines which contestants advance to the next round.
- “Each episode will spotlight the best up-and-coming performers across four categories — music, dance, variety/comedy, kids — as they compete for their shot at stardom. With an arced competition structure and weekly eliminations, the series builds dramatic momentum, making every live episode an unmissable event,” the official description reads.
- The host, judges and premiere date have not yet been announced.
- The reboot is described as a “nostalgic yet fresh entry in the talent competition space” and “draws on the rich legacy of Star Search."
- Casting is underway now at StarSearchLiveCasting.com
