About The Challenge: World Championship TV Series
Paramount+ today announced that the highly anticipated global tournament THE CHALLENGE: WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP will premiere on Wednesday, March 8 in the U.S. and Canada with two back-to-back episodes. The series will debut on the service in the U.K., Latin America and Australia on Thursday, March 9, and in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and France on Wednesday, March 15.
After intense battles around the globe, THE CHALLENGE: WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP brings together global champions and MVPs from "The Challenge: Argentina," "The Challenge: Australia," "The Challenge: U.K." and "The Challenge: USA" to represent their countries and battle for the coveted title of "Challenge World Champion." Joining longtime host TJ Lavin to kick off the premiere episode are global hosts Brihony Dawson (Australia), Mark Wright (U.K.) and Marley Biyendolo (Argentina).
In this 12-part series, each global MVP will be paired with a Challenge Legend, a notable veteran from a previous season of the MTV series, serving as a partner to form the most epic teams in the history of the franchise. They will help them win power and avoid elimination in order to make it to the most difficult challenge of them all, the brutal finale worth $500,000. In the end, only the most dominant will conquer the game and prove they are not just the best in their home country, but the best in the world. Full cast lineup to be announced in the coming weeks.
