Robert Irwin Possibly Hosting New Dancing With the Stars Spinoff

Robert Irwin may soon be exploring new territories.

Fresh off winning season 34 of Dancing With the Stars in November, the wildlife conservationist is in talks with ABC to host a spinoff series currently titled Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro, according to multiple outlets.

The new reality series—expected to air during the summer on ABC and Hulu—will feature dancers competing throughout an audition process, with the winner earning a position as a pro dancer on the upcoming 35th season of Dancing With the Stars, per the reports.

Beyond the most recent Mirrorball winner joining the spinoff, current pro Mark Ballas plus his mom Shirley Ballas—the head judge on the U.K.’s Strictly Come Dancing—are also in discussions to judge the new competition show. As for the third judging slot, the outlets report that’ll be filled by a rotating cast of guest panelists.

E! News has reached out to ABC and a rep for Robert for comment and has not yet heard back.
