RTL Prepares for the Longest Season of ‘I’m a Celebrity—Get Me Out of Here!’ in 2027
The Buzz Begins
Just as the 2026 season of “Ich bin ein Star – Holt mich hier raus!” wraps up, the excitement for 2027 is already brewing among fans. RTL has announced that next year’s season promises to be the “longest ever,” but details about its duration and participants remain under wraps. The whisperings of potential campers have already ignited the rumor mill, giving fans plenty to talk about.
Expanding Popular Shows
During the recent Screenforce Festival 2026, RTL made a significant announcement regarding their popular shows, including “Let’s Dance” and “I’m a Celebrity.” Both programs are set to receive extended airtime in 2027, although specific details on how long they will run remain uncertain. The buzz around who might enter the jungle has intensified, as outlets like “Express” have begun to speculate on possible contestants.
Patience is a Virtue
For fans eagerly awaiting news on the upcoming season, RTL has asked for a little more patience. Traditionally, celebrities spend around 16 to 17 days in the Australian wilderness, and the network is hinting that the 2027 season could break records. They noted that “many celebrities would love to participate in this XXL edition,” but the final list of participants won’t be revealed until later.
Who’s In? Early Contenders
So far, RTL has hinted at five male celebrities who are either in the running or have expressed interest in joining the cast. Leading the pack is reality star Aleks Petrovic, who indicated through an Instagram story that he would be open to participating. He’s not alone in his interest:
- Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht, featured in the reality series “Die Ochsenknechts,” stated he would consider the opportunity if RTL makes a tempting offer.
- Godfrey Egbon, the runner-up of this year’s “Germany’s Next Topmodel,” has mentioned the jungle as “a natural option for me.”
- Veteran actor Frank Kessler expressed interest as far back as last year.
- Entertainer Elton even mentioned during his Dschungelcamp recap with Stefan Raab that he would “immediately go into the jungle.”
The Mystery of Hosts
As the excitement builds for the next season, questions still linger about who will be hosting. The iconic duo of Sonja Zietlow and Jan Köppen, who led the show in 2026, may not be returning. Reports suggest discussions are ongoing, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
Conclusion: What Lies Ahead?
As RTL gears up for an unprecedented season, fans can expect a lot of twists and turns. With speculation swirling around potential participants and hosts, the anticipation grows. While it may take some time for RTL to unveil their full lineup, one thing is certain: the excitement for the Dschungelcamp continues to escalate, and fans can hardly wait for the official announcements.
