Netflix is bringing the world of Monopoly to life in a brand new competition series in which 12 players will compete for a multi-million dollar prize.
Contestants will be immersed in a life-size Monopoly Town Square, where they will have the opportunity to earn money, buy properties, negotiate deals and hopefully stay out of jail.
One by one, bankrupt players will be eliminated, while others build their empire – and only one player can be left standing to take it all.
The new series is produced by Studio Lambert, the production company behind shows like The Traitors, Squid Game: The Challenge and Race Across the World, and applications are now open!
Applications are open to those 21 years old or over, are available to take part for up to three weeks, and are legally a resident of the United States.
If you fancy your chances, you can apply here.
The series will premiere in autumn of next year, and joins a slate of unscripted adaptations of movies and board games on the streamer, including Wonka’s The Golden Ticket.
Stepping into Wonka’s Chocolate Factory are 12 golden ticket winners, each with a partner of their choosing. Once inside, the players must navigate a series of temptations and challenges, all of which are designed to push them physically, mentally and morally.
In the end, only one contestant will earn Wonka’s life-changing prize in the high-stakes social experiment, and all will be revealed on Wednesday 23 September.

“More than five decades after Gene brought Willy Wonka to life, people of all ages and backgrounds around the world continue to find joy, laughter and inspiration in his performance,” said Karen B Wilder, Gene Wilder’s wife, on behalf of the Gene Wilder Estate.
“Gene had a remarkable ability to bring humour, wonder and heart into people’s lives, and that connection has endured for generations.
“We are delighted that Wonka’s The Golden Ticket celebrates the warmth and imagination that he brought to the role, introducing that magic to a new generation while honouring the fans who have cherished it for decades.”
