StarDance: Genzerův Přestup – Nová Nabídka!
A highly anticipated return is set for Sunday, March 8th, bringing back a unique competition format that unites prominent figures from the show’s history. Officially subtitled “Gladiators,” the dance arena is poised to transform into a modern-day coliseum. While the identity of the eleventh season’s host and judging panel remains under wraps, information obtained by Aha! reveals key members of the jury.
New Faces and Familiar Experts
Dance instructor Tatiana Drexler (62) and choreographer Ján Ďurovčík (57) will continue as judges. However, Adam Bardy (32) will be replaced by Czech entertainer and dancer Richard Genzer (59). Reportedly, extensive persuasion was required to secure Genzer’s participation, and he is now scheduled to evaluate the first performances in just one month.
The Gladiators Assemble
The lineup of “Gladiators” is taking shape, with several names already confirmed. Juraj Mokrý (48), Ján Koleník (46) – known in the Czech Republic for his role in the series První republika – Jakub Jablonský (30), Gabika Marcinková (37), Kristián Baran (29), Vladimír Kobielsky (50), and Nela Pocisková (35), a winner of the fourth series who has performed in several musicals at the Kalich Theatre, will all participate. Recently announced additions include actress Petra Polnišová (49), presenter Jana Hospodárová (49), and actress Zuzana Porubjaková (40).
Richard Genzer himself has playfully described his dancing as resembling “old people’s shuffling,” hinting at a potentially humorous and self-deprecating approach to his role as a judge.
What’s Next?
With the judging panel largely set, attention will now turn to the selection of the contestants and the unveiling of the show’s host. It is likely that further details regarding the format and specific challenges will be released in the coming weeks as the premiere date approaches. The show could also leverage the established fan bases of the confirmed “Gladiators” to generate pre-launch buzz, and engagement.
