Netflix, the world’s leading entertainment service, has announced that it will start the production on four special episodes of the Emmy Award-winning original unscripted series Queer Eye, titled Queer Eye: We’re in Japan!
The Fab Five – Antoni Porowski (Food & Wine), Bobby Berk (Interior Design), Jonathan Van Ness (Grooming), Karamo Brown (Culture), and Tan France (Fashion) – will bring their expertise to Tokyo, working with local tastemakers to make-better a new group of heroes, while they learn and experience Japanese cuisine, fashion, design, grooming and culture firsthand.
In Queer Eye: We’re in Japan!, the Fab Five will forge relationships with four Japanese men and women from different backgrounds and cultures who were selected from a wide group of applicants and nominations.
Comments from David Collins, Creator and Executive Producer of Queer Eye: “In just a year since we launched season one, Queer Eye has become a global phenomenon once again and the Fab Five are truly the ambassadors of self-care and compassion that the world needs now more than ever. Filming in Japan is a wonderful opportunity for us to work with four deserving heroes that will help showcase the incredible traditions and customs of their country.”
Queer Eye: We’re in Japan will debut globally on Netflix in 2019, preceded by Queer Eye: Season Three which was filmed in Kansas City, Missouri.
Netflix will invite one lucky fan of Queer Eye for an opportunity to meet the Fab Five. Please see the Netflix Japan Twitter for the details.
