Get ready to see A-list stars such as Zac Efron, Ben Stiller and Channing Tatum Running Wild alongside outdoorsman extraordinaire Bear Grylls in his upcoming reality show.
NBC has announced the premiere date for Running Wild With Bear Grylls, in which Bear takes various celebrities to remote locations throughout the world to embark on “a 48-hour journey of a lifetime.”;
According to NBC’s announcement, the celebs who’ll join the Man vs. Wild star in the great outdoors will include Neighbors star Zac Efron, Ben Stiller of Fockers fame, 22 Jump Street“s Channing Tatum, NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, funnyman Tom Arnold and MSNBC/Today Show anchor Tamron Hall.
Each celeb will appear with Bear in his or her own standalone episode, in which they’ll “endure the harsh wilderness in high-octane, action-based and empowering journeys spread over six remote locations. From skydiving into the Catskill Mountains, to repelling down the cliffs of Utah and battling torrential wind and rain in Scotland, Grylls and each celebrity will have to push both their minds and bodies to the limit to successfully complete their journey.”;
As Grylls explains, Running Wild “allows viewers to see inside the hearts and minds of these guests in a very open, honest and vulnerable way, pushing them out of their comfort zones and seeing what they are like in real life when stripped of all the benefits of celebrity. Ultimately, this show is about taking these stars on the adventure of a lifetime and being alongside them when they discover something new and empowering about themselves and their world. For me, that is always a privilege.”;
Running Wild With Bear Grylls will premiere on Monday, July 28.
