Mark Wright has been confirmed as the host, currently being filmed in Argentina. Early casting suggests that Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace, Joey Essex, AJ & Curtis Pritchard and Ashley McKenzie are all cast (amongst many Love Island cast members).

The show will also be airing on Paramount Plus. The five-part show will see fourteen competitors battling it out in a set of gruelling tasks. A press release from Channel 5 reads... "Hosted by Mark Wright, the legendary global competition show The Challenge gives UK celebrities the chance to compete in high-stakes challenges and eliminations as they try to survive the game's tricky politics in hopes of making it to the game's Final, competing for a large cash prize and the title of Challenge Champion. "Fourteen of the UK’s finest stars from sports and entertainment join host Mark Wright to fight for their share of £100,000 pounds and the title of Challenge Champion. These stars have a track record full of parties, hookups, and memorable one-liners, but none have ever played The Challenge. "Contestants are shocked by the grueling nature of this new competition, which not everyone will leave unscathed. Will these titans be able to adapt and thrive in this treacherous new terrain of brutal athletic battles, political betrayals, and sultry distractions, or will they fall apart as the pressure builds throughout the season?"
