ABC has given a series greenlight to “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,” the network announced Monday.
The celebrity edition marks the primetime debut of the long-running syndicated game show, with Pat Sajak and Vanna White to host celebrity contestants competing for a $1 million prize for a charity of their choosing. No contestants have been announced.
“Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” joins a growing game-show lineup at ABC, following the recent debut of the Leslie Jones-hosted reboot of “Supermarket Sweep” and the upcoming quiz show import “The Chase.” The network has previously seen success with its “Summer Fun and Games” slate of classic game show adaptations, which includes “Celebrity Family Feud,” as well as reboots of “Match Game,” “Press Your Luck” and “$100,000 Pyramid.”
