Sylvester Stallone teams up with Netflix for Ultimate Beastmaster

Sylvester Stallone and Netflix are teaming up for new show, Ultimate Beastmaster.

The programme will be the first ever global on-demand competition series, as customised local versions are planned for six different countries.

These countries include the US – hosted by Terry Crews and Charissa Thompson, Brazil, South Korea, Mexico, Germany and Japan.

Stallone will produce the ten-episode series which will feature 108 competitors – 18 from each country. Each will take their shot at running one of the most physically-demanding obstacle courses ever devised – all hoping to be crowned the Ultimate Beastmaster in the final.

“The invitation to partner with Netflix and mega producer Dave Broome on this revolutionary concept was an opportunity I couldn’t resist,” said Stallone.

“The world will watch in awe as amazing competitors from around the globe overcome gruelling physical challenges – and in the process become champions and heroes.

“The course is unequalled in its daring creation, and I am excited to be a part of it.”

Ultimate Beastmaster is set to hit Netflix on July 31st.
