“Calling new islanders”: Love Island is now casting for next season

Anna Rourke

We’re that desperate for a holiday that we’d nearly apply.

Instead of isolating in your house with your family this year, would you fancy isolating in a Spanish villa with a load of single guys and girls?

If so, you should probably apply for Love Island.

The hit reality show is coming back and ITV2 is looking to recruit the next generation of islanders.

They say they want “vibrant singles” who are searching for romance.

“Our Islanders spend time in a luxury villa in the hope of finding love, but to remain in paradise they must win the hearts of the public and their fellow Islanders, who ultimately decide their fate on Love Island,” the casting call reads.

“‘If you think you’ve got what it takes, then we want to hear from you!”

If you do decide to apply, you might want to manage your expectations about making it on to the show.

Over 85,000 people applied to become an Islander for the 2019 series.

On top of that, lots of previous Islanders have said that they didn’t apply to be on it at all.

Just six of those who appeared on screens in 2019 had put themselves forward for the show, with many of the others being approached by producers on social media.

Love Island hasn’t been on screens since early 2020 thanks to the ongoing global pandemic.
