America's Next Top Model - Tyra Banks to team up with Ashton Kutcher
Wednesday, 27 February 2008
Tyra Banks may team up with Punk'd creator Aston Kutcher to create a new reality show, the Hollywood Reporter has claimed.
The unscripted project, which does not yet have a title, is thought to be in development for ABC and will feature contestants competing in a beauty pageant with a twist.
According to the network, the concept of the show is being kept secret until production of the series gets underway.
It is rumoured that eight episodes have been ordered by ABC so far.
Tyra is rumoured to be developing another reality project for the CW network in addition to America's Next Top Model (ANTM).
In the new programme, contestants will compete for a role as an assistant editor on a fashion magazine, meeting individual and team challenges.
According to a Newsday report from earlier this month, the series has been described as a cross between The Devil Wears Prada and The Assistant.
It is thought that the programme, a collaboration between Tyra and ANTM producing partner Ken Mok, will begin shooting in April and may debut on US TV screens in the late spring or summer this year.
