“The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition” will have a new home starting in the first quarter of 2022 as it premieres on Netflix and airs to over 150 countries worldwide.
The show was a resounding success upon its launch last March in Asia and other parts of the world. It was also honored as Best Non-Scripted Entertainment and Best Adaptation of an Existing Format by the Asian Academy Creative Awards.
ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong can’t wait to showcase what the hype is all about to a global audience.
“The first season of the ‘The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition’ was a smashing success. After a fantastic reception in Asia, it’s time for the rest of the world to experience the toughest and most unique version of ‘The Apprentice’ in history,” Sityodtong said.
“On behalf of ONE Championship, I am truly honored for all the support we have received for the show, and I’m excited to premiere the series to a broader audience.”
While fans in countries outside of Asia are familiar with the Apprentice format, the ONE Championship Edition packs a different kick as it incorporates martial arts values into the popular reality business television show.
Sixteen candidates from various continents will compete for a US$250,000 job offer to work for Sityodtong at the ONE global office in Singapore.
Sports fans will also be thrilled to see some of the biggest names in mixed martial arts like Rich Franklin, Georges St. Pierre, and Renzo Gracie appear during various physical challenges for the contestants.
ONE’s current stars also took time from their busy schedule as Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson, ONE Atomweight World Champion ”Unstoppable” Angela Lee, and ONE Women’s Strawweight World Champion ”The Panda” Xiong Jing Nan, among others, also graced the show.
“The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition” premiered to an estimated four million viewers, making it the most-watched 2021 season premiere of an English-language reality TV series in Asia in terms of broadcast reach.
Its Asian broadcast also garnered 30 million in cumulative reach and raked in an average of 3.5 million reach per episode.
