Netflix Passes Go with New MONOPOLY Competition Series
Casting Now Open
· Today, Netflix announced that it is bringing the world of MONOPOLY, based on Hasbro's iconic board game, to life in a brand-new competition series, where you'll need strategy, alliances, and dealmaking to pass Go! In partnership with Hasbro Entertainment and Produced by Studio Lambert (Squid Game: The Challenge, The Circle), the series will see contestants compete for a chance to win $2 million.
· On a life-sized, fully realized Monopoly Town Square, 12 players will enter on equal footing. But equality won't last long. To survive, contestants must accumulate everything, or lose it all. Every negotiation, every decision, and every roll could mean the difference between building an empire and going directly to jail. One by one, bankrupt players are eliminated - until a single winner is left standing to take it all.
· Casting is now open.
· Premiere Date: 2027
· Executive Producers: Gabriel Marano and Zachary Edwin (Hasbro Entertainment), Nia Yemoh, Tim Harcourt, Jack Burgess, Stephen Lambert, Kim Murphy (Studio Lambert)
· Production Company: Studio Lambert
