“It has been rumored now for a while but we are thrilled to finally confirm that we are making Love Island: All Stars early next year for ITV2 and ITVX. It's set to be a must-watch series seeing some of your favorite Islanders from across the years heading back to the stunning South African villa to once again 'graft' as their search for love continues. I simply can't wait!" Mike Spencer, Creative Director, Lifted Entertainment, said.
"After ten ratings-busting seasons of Love Island on ITV2, we're delighted to be able to celebrate a decade of the number one dating show on television with the first ever series of 'Love Island: All Stars.' Set in our luxurious South African Villa, I know the audience will welcome back some of the most iconic UK Islanders, as they set out in pursuit of love all over again in a brand new version of our worldwide hit," Paul Mortimer, Director of Reality Commissioning & Acquisitions and Controller, ITV2, ItvBe, added.
“Motion is proud of its long partnership with 'Love Island' and can think of no better way to celebrate this milestone alongside Lifted and ITV than going on a date with our most-loved and longed-for Islanders.”
Legendary Islanders from the former series will each attempt to find love once again as they crack on to couple up and avoid being dumped from the Island. Relationships will be put to the test as bombshells enter and heads turn, leaving some lovestruck hopefuls heartbroken in the ultimate quest for love," Martin Oxley, Head of Formats and Entertainment at GroupM Motion Entertainment, added.
