"WORLD'S TOUGHEST RACE: ECO-CHALLENGE FIJI" COMES TO AMAZON PRIME VIDEO AUGUST 14
New Amazon Original Series Hosted by Bear Grylls and Executive Produced by Mark Burnett Features 66 Teams from 30 Countries Competing in the International Sporting Event of The Summer
CULVER CITY, Calif. - June 24, 2020 - World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji will premiere on Prime Video on August 14th 2020 in more than 200 countries and territories worldwide. This 10-episode adventure series, hosted by Bear Grylls and executive produced by Mark Burnett, tells the story of the ultimate expedition race, in which 66 teams from 30 countries race non-stop for 11 days, 24 hours a day, across hundreds of miles of rugged Fijian terrain complete with mountains, jungles and oceans.
Filmed last fall in Fiji, World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji is a battle to the finish for 330 competitors (who form teams of five, including four racers and an assistant crew member); however, the greatest challenges are not the competing teams, but the unforgiving 671 kilometers of terrain which stands between all those competing and the finish line. Viewers worldwide will see the limits of human physical and mental endurance tested like never before.
At its core, World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji is about perseverance. People from all walks of life and every corner of the globe join together to overcome the most incredible obstacles. The challenges lie both within the course itself, and competitors' equally daunting personal struggles, which are only magnified by the demands of the expedition.
The series, produced by MGM Television in association with Amazon Studios, comes from an award-winning team in television including host and executive producer Bear Grylls (Man vs Wild, Running Wild), showrunner and executive producer Lisa Hennessy (Eco-Challenge, The Biggest Loser), and executive producers Mark Burnett (Survivor, The Voice), Eric Van Wagenen (Survivor, The Amazing Race), Barry Poznick for MGM Studios, and Delbert Shoopman, Grylls' producing partner.
Prime members can stream World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji exclusively via the Prime Video app for TVs, connected devices including Fire TV, mobile devices and online.
