Italy’s Casta Diva options Nippon TV’s Man or Mannequin? for Italy

Italy’s Casta Diva has optioned Nippon TV gameshow Man or Mannequin?

Italian production company Casta Diva Pictures has optioned Nippon TV in Japan’s gameshow format Man or Mannequin? for local adaptation.

Man or Mannequin? is a team-based gameshow where celebrity contestants race against time to find mannequins cleverly hidden throughout the city. The mannequins are disguised as real humans, while there are also humans trying to fool the contestants by pretending to be mannequins.

As the game progresses, former teammates might become rivals, using their knowledge of each other’s strategies to outwit and outplay as they try to determine what is real and fake.

Nippon TV launched Man or Mannequin? at Mipcom last year, and Casta Diva is now looking for an Italian broadcaster to commission its adaptation.
