Netflix reveals huge update about Holly Willoughby and Bear Grylls' new competition series
It was revealed earlier this year that Holly Willoughby and Bear Grylls were uniting for a brand new competition series on Netflix and now the streaming platform has revealed a huge update.
Taking to the official Netflix UK and Ireland Instagram account, they shared a first-look poster of Celebrity Bear Hunt as well as a highly-anticipated release date.
In the poster, Holly and Bear can be seen standing on either side, in the midst of a jungle, where trees and birds can be seen. Holly is all decked up in a khaki green t-shirt and some camoflauge shorts as she stands with her hands on her hips and looks out into the distance.
Meanwhile, Bear looks the business with a rope and all of his equipment tied to his chest, as he folds his arms and looks straight into the camera.
Netflix revealed that Celebrity Bear Hunt will be debuting on the streaming platform on February 5, meaning fans have less than two months to wait. They penned: "Can 12 celebrities survive being hunted in the Costa Rican jungle by Bear Grylls? Hosted by Holly Willoughby, Celebrity Bear Hunt arrives 5 February 2025, only on Netflix."
