Get ready for a tropical twist on a classic! Joe Manganiello, known for his roles in “Magic Mike” and “True Blood,” is swapping the silver screen for the sandy shores of “Deal or No Deal Island,” the highly-anticipated reboot of the iconic game show. We caught up with Joe to dish on the unexpected hosting gig, battling jungle critters, and a possible royal cameo!
From Westeros to Deals: “It was completely out of the blue,” Joe reveals about the NBC call offering him the hosting reins. “But I’m a huge fan of the show, and the island twist? Sign me up!” Stepping into the shoes of Howie Mandel, Joe brings his signature charisma and humor to the game, guiding contestants through thrilling deal-making amidst the island’s exotic backdrop.
Survivor Vibes: But don’t expect a walk in the park (or a stroll on the beach)! Filming in a real jungle meant facing the elements, and Joe doesn’t shy away from sharing the challenges: “100% humidity, snakes slithering around, monkeys flinging coconuts… it’s intense!” He even mentions battling giant spiders and scorpions – talk about raising the stakes!
Royal Surprise? When asked if former “Deal or No Deal” briefcase model and now Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, might make a surprise appearance, Joe mischievously replies, “You’ll have to tune in and see… Anything could happen!” Could we see a royal briefcase reveal or a hilarious jungle encounter? Only time will tell!
More Than Just Deals: Beyond the game itself, Joe emphasizes the show’s fun and adventurous spirit. “It’s not just about the money,” he says. “It’s about the experience, the challenges, and the unexpected twists that keep you on the edge of your seat.”
