In the original game show on the kid focused network, teams with names like the Blue Barracudas and the Orange Iguanas competed in a series of physical and mental challenges. The new version will change things up a bit, while keeping some elements from the original. We’ll still see contestants compete in a jungle setting, the Temple Run will come back, and the Olmec statue will, of course, be front and center.
Quibi says the reboot will feature adults competing in the game, saying that they’re planning to bring in “superfans” to take on the challenges.
Helping to keep the reboot true to the original, Scott A. Stone, one of the original creators, will be producing. “Bringing back Legends for Quibi is a dream come true,” Stone said in a press release. “I have been so lucky to be part of this defining millennial show, and now there is a defining millennial platform to go with it. I couldn’t be more excited.”
Quibi is set to launch on April 6, 2020.
