A production insider tells Woman’s Day The Hoff is here to film a new reality TV show, explaining, “David and Rhys worked together a few years ago on the movie Killing Hasselhoff, and they both jumped at the chance to work together again in an unscripted series.

“For David, it’s his first time playing himself in a real situation. We get to know the man on camera through his genuine experiences on the road across Aotearoa. He has next-level charisma, skill and magic that rubs off on everyone.”
