Project Runway will move to Freeform for Season 21 in 2025, the network announced on Thursday. The host, judges and premiere date for the 10-episode season will be announced at a later date.
"Project Runway is an iconic television juggernaut that perfectly complements the pop-culture spirit at Freeform," said Simran Sethi, the president of scripted programming for Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment. "We are excited to welcome the original series to the Disney family and reignite the fanbase alongside Spyglass [Media Group] and Alfred Street [Industries], giving viewers the chance to once again share in discovering the next generation of exceptionally talented fashion designers."
Producer Dan Cutforth said in a statement that the move will evolve the series "for a new generation." Producer Jane Lipsitz added that the refresh will "honor our die-hard Project Runway fans" while also introducing new and innovative ideas.
Originally hosted by Heidi Klum, Project Runway debuted in 2004 on Bravo, where it stayed for five seasons before moving to Lifetime. In 2019, the series returned to Bravo, with Karlie Kloss replacing Klum as host, and Season 4 winner Christian Siriano replacing Tim Gunn as mentor. Project Runway Season 20 wrapped in September 2023.
In addition to Siriano, the competition series has helped launch the careers of prolific designers, including Austin Scarlett, Leanne Marshall, Irina Shabayeva, Michael Costello and Bishme Cromartie.

Luke Littler is about to become the youngest person to display daring, knowledge and luck. yes............
Luke Littler has reportedly signed up for the 'Bullseye' revival.
The 17-year-old World Championship runner-up is said to joining new host Freddie Flintoff on ITV's upcoming Christmas reboot of the iconic quiz show, and he'll be throwing for charity as the guest player.
A source told The Sun newspaper's TVBiz column: "Luke wasn't even born when Bullseye was on our screens with original host, Jim Bowen. But Luke knows this is a plum role to have landed.
"As he steps up to the Bullseye oche he knows he's following in the footsteps of legends including Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson who all threw darts on the programme in its 1980s heyday."
Landing Luke for the festive episode has been described as a real "coup" for the producers, who are said to have acted fast to get him on board.
The insider added: "It's also a coup for the makers of the new Bullseye as Luke is now one of Britain's best-known players. "Producers moved swiftly to sign him shortly after the program was recommissioned by ITV.
"It all adds to the huge sense of excitement for the programme to return."
A date has yet to be set for the Christmas special, but it's hoped the return will be a big enough hit to prompt a full series in 2025.
The original show - which became infamous for its less-than-stellar prizes - first aired on ITV between 1981 and 1995 with host Bowen at the helm.

Everyone remembers the iconic Channel 4 daytime quiz 15 to 1 but..................
Satisfaction Group presents a new quiz show 1 to 10, at the upcoming MIPCOM. The game show premiered on TF1 and is adapted from a popular board game. Hosted by Arthur, one of France's most renowned television hosts, '1 to 10' invites viewers to experience a thrilling mix of strategy, knowledge, and self-awareness.
'1 to 10'offers a fresh twist on the quiz show format; contestants must not only answer questions correctly, but they must also evaluate their own confidence levels across various subjects. With every round, they wager on their knowledge and precision, making this more than just a quiz—it's a game of self-assessment.
For its launch the show has already boosted viewership numbers and speciafically captured the attention of younger viewers, with 39% share and has had outperformed the slot's average on commercial target with 27.8% market share making it leader on the slot.
Arthur states : "With 1 to 10, we've created a game that challenges contestants not just to be knowledgeable, but to know themselves deeply. It's a dynamic, strategic format that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish. This genre is particularly loved by TV audiences and follows the trend of big quiz shows that have been performing exceptionally well across Europe. I was very excited to bring this fresh concept to prime time on TF1 and we are confident the format will conquer international audiences".

Netflix subscribers will soon be able to stuff their faces with a second helping of the popular cooking competition series Culinary Class Wars. The streamer revealed Tuesday from Seoul that it has renewed the hit Korean show for a second season.
Similar in format to Netflix's Korean reality hit Physical 100, Culinary Class Wars follows 100 elite chefs divided into two classes: white spoons (celebrity chefs) and black spoons (non-celebrity chefs). The contestants then face off in a cooking tournament in hopes of winning a prize of 300 million Korean won (about $230,000). They are judged by two sharp-tongued local food experts: veteran restaurateur and celebrity chef, Paik Jong-won, and the only Michelin three-star chef in Korea, Anh Sung-jae.
Culinary Class Wars is a sizable hit both in Korea and among international audiences. Released just last month, the show was Netflix's first Korean unscripted title to sit atop its global top-ten list for non-English series for three consecutive weeks. Netflix says the key creative team behind the first season's success — producers Kim Hak-min and Kim Eun-ji, along with writer Mo Eun-sol from Studio Slam — will return for the second season.
"We're extremely grateful to our viewers. Because of them, we're able to come back for Season 2. We will do our best to return the love and fulfill expectations," the trio said in a joint statement.
Added Ki Hwan Yoo, Netflix's director of content in Korea: "Shows of this scale take a lot of effort to bring to life, and we're proud of what we've accomplished with our dedicated team. As we continue to expand our unscripted offerings, we're looking forward to sharing even more unique and exciting titles with you soon.".

The last time Fremantle and the Netherlands’ NewBe teamed up, they created Netflix’s Heartbreak High reboot. The pair have now reunited and teamed with toy firm Jumbo Group to adapt a music party game into a game show.
The trio are working up Hitster, which is based on a party game that has caught on with Millennials and Gen Zs billed as a “fun-filled journey down memory lane.” The rules are simple: simply guess if a song was released before or after other songs in your music timeline. The player with the most cards on the correct timeline is the winner.
Unlike Heartbreak High, which was made through Fremantle Australia, the superindie’s Dutch wing, Fremantle Netherlands, will lead on production alongside NewBe. Fremantle will hold the international production and distribution rights.
“Having already achieved huge international success as a game, Hitster’s universal themes and mix of interactive music play create an instant party at home that we’re confident will transfer and be enjoyed on TV screens,” said Vasha Wallace, EVP, Global Acquisitions & Development at Fremantle. “We look forward to developing and bringing this highly entertaining format to global audiences.”
“For the first time, a party game has become the center of watercooler conversations, something previously only TV shows could achieve,” added Jeroen Koopman, founder and CEO at NewBe. “After playing the game, hearing the inspiring story of its founder, Marcus Carleson, and meeting with the team at Jumbo Group, we were confident it had the makings of a TV hit. Partnering with Fremantle, the leader in this genre, felt like the natural next step.”
Isa Lana, Chief Marketing Officer at Jumbo Group said the game has launched in 30 countries and achieved bestselling game status in Germany and the Netherlands this year. “This accomplishment is a testament to how much our consumers enjoy and engage with the game,” she added. “What truly matters most is how we’re bringing them moments of fun and shared experiences.”
