Several great adventure reality projects are soon to be announced, both originals as well productions resulting from creative partnerships

By creating a dedicated, separate division within the company, solely focused on adventure reality, Talpa is investing in the development and production of adventure reality formats. Geraldine Smink and Wim van Dam were added to the team, both with a vast global track record in this genre.

Van Dam was one of the co-creators of Million Dollar Island. While that show is successfully traveling the globe, Talpa has just finished recording its next big adventure reality show, in Africa.

Smink has spent the last fifteen years as an executive producer for Strix/Monday Media focusing on factual, survival and reality shows. Van Dam has more than made his mark in producing various adventure reality shows, such as Survivor for over 15 years. Smink is excited: “I’ve been working with Wim for years. It’s wonderful to now have our own adventure reality department within Talpa, an environment where everything is possible, and we can create content beyond compare.”

Several great adventure reality projects are soon to be announced, both originals as well productions resulting from creative partnerships. The first one has just been recorded in Africa. The yet to be announced show is set to air in 2024 in The Netherlands, on SBS6.
