Tyra Banks has found a way to pick up yet another bag in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, Banks shared that she had signed a first-look deal with ABC Signature.
“Ever since I was a little girl growing up in Inglewood, California, I’ve been enamored by the magic of Disney. Joining the family at ABC feels like a homecoming of sorts,” Banks said.
“Karey Burke, Rob Mills, Jonnie Davis and their teams are visionary leaders. My Bankable team and I are pumped to create dynamic, can’t-miss programming that is loud, splashy and spans to international shores,” she added.
Banks is an unquestioned star and the network is glad to have her. In fact, the network recently hired the America’s Next Top Model host to lead the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars. In just a matter of months, the entire company has began singing her praises.
“Tyra’s fierce and undeniable passion has not only made her one of the biggest stars to date, it has created an incredible connection with female audiences across multiple generations,” ABC Executive Karey Burke said.
“We are so excited to welcome Bankable into the family and are looking forward to collaborating with Tyra and her all-star, female-led team,” she added.
With this new deal, viewers can expect new comedy, drama and unscripted content from the Banks camp at ABC in the near future.
