Stars on Mars was commissioned by Fox Entertainment in the US, and produced by Fremantle’s Eureka Productions, and heads to our screens on June 5. To be clear, no one (that we know of) actually lives on Mars.

It’s the largest TV format production ever filmed in SA.įederal Minister for the Arts Tony Burke says Stars On Mars “might be set on another planet – but this production will have real-world impacts for the Australian screen industry, supporting local jobs and expertise”. With the remote outback in and around Coober Pedy imitating the Martian landscape, this simulation will see celebrities experience physical and mental challenges inspired by real-life Mars exploration programs. This time the opal capital of the world was transformed into the surface of Mars, as the celebs experience what it would be like to be part of a space program exploring and living on the Red Planet.

“It was beautiful.” Tweet from new, unscripted series began filming in May as part of the Australian government’s Location Incentive, with additional support from the South Australian Film Corporation.Ĭoober Pedy has long been favoured by filmmakers, from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome to Pitch Black and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and more recently Ivan Sen’s outback film noir, Limbo, starring Simon Baker. I mean, it was remarkable … there was a humanity that I would never have thought of. “There was selflessness and concern and team spirit. Shatner says “human emotions that you would have never expected”.
Lynch was a little delusional, asking whether he looked like a real astronaut.
In the promo, all the contestants are decked out in impressive NASA-style space suits, and we hear from Mintz-Plasse, who reckons Rousey has what it takes to win the big prize (whatever that is). “The psychological element became something palpable.” Shatner said the celebrity contestants “required intelligence, which is very rare at this time” but “there was a psychological element” that became a major part of the show. “They were courageous and enthusiastic,” the host revealed, adding that over time, “they began to evolve into a team, into caring for one another.” Shatner, who was on a real-life suborbital spaceflight in 2021, told ETthe conditions were “overwhelming”, with the cast “confined to quarters at the times the circumstances outside were really ugly”. Pre-production and set construction began in March, when average daily temperatures were above 30 degrees Celsius, as locals began spotting four space-like domes, including one near the Umoona community gymnasium which was used as a studio for 250 crew. Sitting inside a makeshift mission control – which looks nothing like the deck of the USS Enterprise – Shatner addresses his cast and says: “If you need anything, you’re completely on your own.” He is synonymous with space – he played an alien on 3rd Rock from the Sun and covered David Bowie’s Space Oddity – and let’s not forget his stunning success rate conquering new galaxies as Captain Kirk with Star Trek. The rest of the cast list is US comedian Natasha Leggero, NFL star Marshawn Lynch, actor Christopher Mintz-Plasse ( Kick Ass), US figure Tom Schwartz, Richard Sherman, Porsha Williams Guobadia, Tallulah Willis, Tinashe and Ariel Winter.
