Banijay Entertainment has announced a new comedy format, Liars Club, produced by Endemol France exclusively for Prime Video.
In Liars Club, five celebrity duos compete in a riotous game of truth and lies. Each pair must use their acting skills and powers of persuasion to convince the others of their honesty, as only one duo will be telling the truth each round. The challenge is to separate the genuine from the fabricated, as the best liars fight for victory. The star-studded French cast includes Kad Merad and Olivier Baroux, Freddy Gladieux and Anis Rhali, Melha Bedia and Oulaya Amara, Ahmed Sylla and Hakim Jemili, and McFly and Carlito.
“Delivering high-energy entertainment is at the core of what we do, and Liars Club is the perfect example of that," said Endemol France CEO Jean-Louis Blot in a statement. "We are positive this comedic format will delight viewers and complement our diverse catalogue.”
“Liars Club blends comedy, surprise and mischief into a delightful package," added Banijay Entertainment Chief Content Officer James Towney. "With a sharp and witty cast, paired with Endemol France’s expertise in delivering the next generation of superbrands, audiences can expect an unmissable series.”
Endemol France, part of Banijay France, is a non-scripted powerhouse having produced recent hits: Star Academy, which is co-produced with DMLS TV and is coming back for a third season this month; LEGOMasters, Celebrity Hunted, LOL: Last One Laughing, and Drag Race France.
Banijay Entertainment boasts a globally renowned catalogue which includes superbrands like MasterChef, Big Brother and Survivor, and hit travellers like The Summit, Good Luck Guys, and Love Triangle. These titles are complemented by highly-anticipated streamer launches such as Bear Hunt and Building the Band (w/t) for Netflix, and Last One Laughing UK for Prime Video.
