Netflix chooses Morocco to film the French version of “Love is Blind”

Netflix has decided to film the French version of the popular reality TV show “Love is Blind” in Morocco, inspired by the original American version.

According to the French newspaper Le Parisien, filming of the program has already begun, and it will be presented by French Olympic judo champion Teddy Riner, along with his partner Luthana Blokos.

Morocco is a favorite destination due to Teddy Riner's passion One of the reasons Morocco was chosen as a filming location is due to Teddy Renner's love for the kingdom, where he lived for a time. He is said to have a particular liking for Marrakech, where he received his presenting training for the show.

This is not the first time that Renner has tried his hand at television presenting. In 2019, he presented the sports programme “La Course des Champions” on France 2, but it did not achieve the expected success.

“Love is Blind” with a new vision and Moroccan experience The idea of the program, called Love Is Blind Habibi, is based on bringing together young men and women of different nationalities in one place, to get to know each other and get married in an unconventional way, where communication between participants takes place by hearing their voices only without seeing their faces.

After ten days, they are given the opportunity to choose a partner to get to know each other more deeply, leading to marriage.

It is noteworthy that the Arabic version of the program, which was filmed in Dubai, sparked widespread controversy and included Moroccan figures, which increased media and public interest in the idea of the program.
