American audiences will be swooning for "Love Island" later this month, and we've just got a sneak peek at the show's hopeful romantics.
The popular British dating show, which returned to the UK in 2015 after nearly a decade off the air, will be heading to the US for an adaptation for CBS beginning on July 9. The network has recently revealed the 11 of the show's contestants, who will come together in Fiji to find their other half. Those who to fail do so will ultimately face elimination.
The reality series will be hosted by actress, social media star and model Arielle Vandenberg. According to CBS, the audience will also play an integral role in how these islanders' fates will play out on screen.
"Islanders are on the lookout for romance, but the road to love doesn’t always run smoothly," the network said in a press release. "Challenges abound with new Islander arrivals and dramatic twists as friendships and relationships form. In addition to choosing their partners wisely, Islanders must also win the hearts of viewers, who have the opportunity to shape events on screen and ultimately crown one lucky couple the winner who will then have the chance to walk away with both love and the cash prize."
