NBC is looking to adapt I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! for the US, according to Hollywood Reporter.The network is in talks with Granada America for another US version of the UK format. The show was first launched in America six years ago by ABC, but ran for only one season.
NBC is to order at least 12 episodes of the show, which are expected to be stripped on weekdays.
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! - which has run for eight seasons in the UK - has gained international popularity. The UK original sees celebrities living in harsh tropical conditions and competing in challenges to earn rewards such as food and other basic comforts. One by one, the players are evicted.
NBC is reportedly looking at a summer launch for the show.
