JUEGO DE VILLANOS to Bring 18 Villains to Telemundo Reality Series
Based on the international format HOUSE OF VILLAINS, the series is produced by Banijay Colombia for Telemundo.
Telemundo has announced Juego de Villanos, its latest reality competition based on the hit international format House of Villains, which brings 18 controversial personalities together under one roof for a competition fueled by strategy, alliances, rivalries, and betrayals. Throughout the season, contestants will face intense challenges and eliminations as they battle to outwit their rivals and claim the title of Emperador Villano (Villain Emperor) and a $200,000 cash prize.
'Juego de Villanos reaffirms our commitment to push the boundaries of the reality genre through original formats that surprise, entertain, and engage audiences in unexpected ways,' said Javier Pons, Chief Content Officer and Head of Telemundo Studios. 'For the first time, we are bringing together villains who have made their mark through their strong character, strategic gameplay, and ability to create some of television's most unforgettable moments.'
In each episode of Juego de Villanos, contestants will have to demonstrate their ability to manipulate, negotiate, and outplay their rivals through a series of challenges designed to test their strategy and gameplay skills. Only one will make it to the end to claim the title and cash prize.
Telemundo will soon announce the cast of villains and the host of this new reality competition.
