French broadcaster M6 has ordered a spin-off of its popular adventure reality show 'Pékin Express', featuring the YouTube duo Studio Danielle, according to industry sources. The project was first reported by media outlet Puremédias on May 28, 2026.
Studio Danielle, composed of friends Léo and Nathan, gained fame on YouTube with travel and challenge videos. Their participation in a 'Pékin Express' spin-off marks a new direction for the franchise, which has aired since 2006.
M6 has not officially confirmed the order. The network typically announces new seasons in late summer. The spin-off's format and premiere date remain unannounced.
This move follows a trend of French networks casting digital creators in traditional TV formats to attract younger audiences.
