Twofour commissioned to produce brand new ITV4 entertainment show, Take The Tower, with Dolph Lundgren.

ITV4 has commissioned Twofour to produce Take The Tower (6 x 60') which draws inspiration from classic Hollywood action movies to create a challenge show like no other.

The host, Hollywood action hero Dolph Lundgren of Rocky, Universal Soldier and The Expendables blockbusters as well as upcoming films Aquaman and Creed 2, will challenge some of the toughest members of the public to a combination of physical challenges and quiz questions. Contestants who manage to make their way to the top of the tower' will whisk their mates off on holiday.

This adrenaline packed series will tap into classic movie tropes, requiring toughness, brains and stamina. It's high stakes with cash prizes up for grabs and the fear of one of the team being toppled off the tower'.

Melanie Leach, Chief Executive, Twofour, said: This is probably the most bonkers idea we've had the good fortune to make. But in the words of the A Team, it's so crazy, it just might work.

Paul Mortimer, Head of Digital Channels and Acquisitions said: Take the Tower will anchor a night of new, original series this coming Autumn on ITV4 as we push forward with a commissioning strategy that puts male-skewed entertainment at the heart of Prime Time on the channel.

The show was commissioned by Amanda Stavri, Commissioning Editor, Comedy & Entertainment for ITV, and will be executive produced by Melanie Leach, Andrew Mackenzie and Rachel Watson. Air date is yet to be confirmed. The show will be represented internationally by Twofour Rights.
