In March 2022, it was announced that NBC has given a greenlight to Million Dollar Island, produced by Studio Lambert and Talpa Media USA. It is a high-stakes social experiment in which 100 contestants must forge friendships and build alliances as they plot to stay on a remote desert island for up to 50 days and compete to win their share of the ultimate $1 million prize. Upon arrival each contestant is given a bracelet worth $10,000. During their time on the island, contestants gain and lose bracelets through various challenges, but when a player leaves the island, they must choose who will receive their portion of the money. In this intense competition, the strength of your personal bonds are just as important as being the ultimate player. In July 2022, it was announced that the series was shelved prior to the start of production.
