Temptation Island Scores Polish Adaptation

Banijay’s Endemol Shine Poland is set to produce an adaptation of Temptation Island for Polsat to debut this fall.

The format sees couples test their commitment to each other by being separated into two different villas full of singles to determine if they can withstand temptations. The Polish iteration marks the 25th adaptation of the series.

This order comes after the recently announced productions for Mexico, Brazil and Argentina/Chile following an agreement between Banijay Mexico & U.S. Hispanic, Endemol Shine Brasil and Prime Video. The format has already found success in territories such as the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and the U.S.

“Temptation Island has captured audiences around the world, and I am looking forward to bringing our local feel to the format,” said Ryszard Sibilski, managing director of Endemol Shine Poland. “The beautiful settings combined with the intense emotional journey promise a riveting viewing experience for Polish audiences.”

Lucas Green, chief content officer of operations at Banijay, added, “This hit relationship experiment format grips viewers as it is full of drama and taps into universal themes and relatable emotions. This latest commission, alongside that of the hub in LatAm, demonstrates the strength of this IP and the continued desire for high-volume reality programming.”
