FOX’s hit singing competition, The Masked Singer, is heading to Mexico on Televisa.
The singing competition is set to be adapted for the Spanish speaking market with Televisa Studios and Endemol Shine Boomdog licensing the format from South Korea’s MBC.
The Masked Singer features celebrities facing off against one another with one major twist: each singer is shrouded from head to toe in an elaborate costume, complete with full face mask to conceal his or her identity.
Eduardo Clemesha, Vice President of Entertainment at Televisa, said:
The realization of this new project responds to the permanent commitment of Televisa to offer its audiences the best and most innovative contents. We are sure that the new version of “The Masked Singer” will become one of the most important links in the success chain, which already records this spectacular format internationally.
Alejandro Rincon, CEO, Endemol Shine Boomdog added:
We are thrilled to be co-producing ‘The Masked Singer’ with our colleagues at Televisa, a series that was recently produced by our team in the U.S. to great success. This is a very special series and we can’t wait to share it with the Mexican audience.
The Mexican version of The Masked Singer will be released in 2019.
