Love Island boss wants to do all-star season with former islanders
Could some former Islanders be about to come back for round two?
Love Island is about to return for its eighth season on ITV2, but it seems the hit reality show's executive producer already has his sights set on a big future switch-up – an All Stars version of the series.
In an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit, Executive Producer Mike Spencer was asked whether he would ever consider bringing back Celebrity Love Island, the original format which ran from 2005-2006 from which the current iteration of the show was inspired.
In response, Spencer said: "That would be a question for the channel. I would personally love to make an ‘All stars’ in the future with past Islanders across all series. What do you think?"
If the show did get a spin-off series with former contestants, it would be following in the footsteps of ITV's other big reality show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, which is gearing up towards its own All-Star series this year.
Fans were quick to respond with their approval on Reddit, with one saying "That would be my DREAM!!! Please make it happen!!" while another commented "As long as you bring our queen Maura it'd be amazing!"
