*Netflix is turning “Monopoly” into a real-world contest with a $2 million prize at stake.
Casting is underway for the new competition series, which will bring together 12 players inside a full-scale setting modeled after the famous board game, per Tudum. The show is expected to arrive in fall 2027.
Here’s the synopsis: “Contestants will be immersed in a life-size Monopoly Town Square where they’ll have the opportunity to earn money, buy properties, negotiate deals, and hopefully stay out of jail. (No word if winning second prize in a beauty contest will still earn $10.) One by one, bankrupt players will be eliminated while others build their empire — until the one person left standing takes it all.”
Netflix is developing the program with Hasbro Entertainment and Studio Lambert. The production company previously created “Squid Game: The Challenge” and “The Circle” for the streamer.
