It looks like Wheel of Fortune Australia is set for another spin, with a new contestant search suggesting the revived game show isn’t done just yet.
A casting notice released by UK producer Whisper North states the game show “is coming to Channel 10”, pointing to a likely return for the 2024 revival despite the network previously describing it as a short run event.
The development comes as 10 continues to shape its entertainment slate for the remainder of 2026, following the decision to shelve The Amazing Race Australia earlier this year and ‘rest’ several local entertainment formats.
Entries are open until 19 August for Australian citizens aged 18 and over who hold a valid Australian passport, reflecting the production model used for the 2024 revival.
Like last time, the Australian version is expected to again be filmed alongside the continuing UK series, with Graham Norton also expected to return as host, allowing Australian episodes to be recorded during the same studio production run.
The move also follows production of at least six themed Deal or No Deal Celebrity Jackpot Specials earlier this month, including editions featuring Australian comedians, Australian radio and podcast hosts, The Cheap Seats, Gogglebox, The Wiggles and the UFC.
If the episodes are ready in time, Wheel of Fortune Australia could join those Deal or No Deal specials, alongside The Traitors and Big Brother, as 10’s entertainment lineup for the remainder of 2026 continues to take shape.
When questioned by TV Blackbox following last year’s Upfront presentation, 10 said Wheel of Fortune Australia had been “rested”, adding the revival “was only ever meant as a short run”.
The casting process suggests the network’s plans have evolved as it continues to round out its entertainment slate for the remainder of 2026.

Run the show in Australia & have it run for 30 mins. This format they have is stupid, & the crowd making those annoying cheers when the wheel is spinning. 🙄
No one’s forcing you to watch it
Sean Brett ikr
Sean Brett yes I agree 100%
Another reason not to watch tv here
Karl Stefanovic is available!!!!…😅😅😅
Oh that’s cool
You have to go to the UK for the taping.
👏👏👏
Karl Stefanovic is now available so no need to send it overseas. Bring back the original prizes and no Big W shit and may be on to a winner.
Joshua George yes and original rules too of how I grew up to ya know
Somebody should bring back the Price is Right!!
Colin Maynard Agreed, loved when Foxtel showed the U.S. TPIR on the long defunct W in 2011, hated 7’s half baked 2012 Aussie revival!
Katrice – go for it, I’m shite at these
Tony Purcell with Graham Norton?? Absolutely. Love that guy 🤣🤣
It’s filmed in the Uk
Nah sorry to many rounds and we’re not saying our countenance and vowels properly like we used to in the past
The show also needs to be filmed here in Australia not the bloody UK
Can’t give Aussie a job on shore?
David Morison It’s filmed in the UK
Steve Molk this I’m aware of… but if it’s the Aussie version, do it here, give Aussie tv industry the jobs
David Morison It’s too expensive – the main talent is there, the set is there…
Steve Molk the ten news is done with green screens …. All they need is a wheel, must be one laying around after years of wheel of fortune in Aus…
David Morison no, it isn’t. Very large screens behind the presenters on set.
Steve Molk no worries, I’ve seen the 10 set up with a desk and green screens to floor.
After the Sony problems they still trying to ? Are you sure Sony will allow this cheap version?
David Strazdins being filmed in England with an english comedian who hosts his own weekly talk show with international celebrities all going on it. He wouldn’t be demanding a paltry sum. So no i don’t think it’s cheap
Ben Lyons fuck yeah
The last season was dreadful. Hopefully it returns to the 30 minute Australian format.
I wouldn’t mind a Greyhound Pioneer holiday to Alice Springs or a Sanyo bedside clock radio telephone or even a set of fine Selangor pewter goblets (but not the Splayds).
