The celebrity singing competition The Masked Singer is getting an Australian adaptation, which will air on 10 and WIN Network.

The local version will be produced by Warner Bros. Australia. It will see celebrities facing off against one another with one major twist: each singer is disguised head-to-toe in an elaborate costume to conceal their identity.

Network 10’s chief content officer, Beverley McGarvey, said: “We are so thrilled to have The Masked Singer on 10.

“It is genuinely original, addictive and a little bit bonkers. It is not that often that you get to launch something that feels so unique and exciting. We cannot wait to get going and have the whole country playing along.”

Warner Bros. Australia CEO Michael Brooks said: “Australian TV audiences are screaming out for something fresh, exciting and original. The Masked Singer is not a singing show, it’s an addictive guessing game that will have the entire country asking one question…who is behind the mask?”
