While the third season of 7 vs. Wild has officially ended on YouTube, the CEO of Calivision Network reveals how the brand will continue.
Where was season 4 confirmed? Season 4 of 7 vs. Wild has been confirmed by André Schubert, the CEO of Calivision Network. Calivision Network acquired the rights to 7 vs. Wild before the third season and is producing the series together with the original founders Fritz Meinecke, Maximilian Kovacs, and Johannes Hovekamp.
Schubert recently gave an interview, which can be found at DWDL, where he extensively discussed 7 vs. Wild.
One of the participants of season 3 is Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.
Season 4 is already in planning
What about season 4? André Schubert revealed in the interview: “For Calivision Network, the planning for the fourth season is definitely continuing. Some details still need to be clarified.” It seems clear that there will be a 4th season. Recently, Knossi spoke with “7 vs. Wild” founder Maximilian Kovacs on the phone to try to get information about season 4.
Schubert hasn’t revealed what exactly season 4 will look like. However, he emphasized the interest from abroad in 7 vs. Wild. The fact that the show aired on Amazon Freevee is no coincidence.
At the same time, he mentioned that the United Kingdom and the United States of America are among the most important markets. Whether there will really be international seasons is unclear.
What is the deal with the female variant? Schubert is aware that 7 vs. Wild has provided not only content but also a large fan base for Amazon Freevee. He says:
We want to apply this recipe to other formats. These have nothing to do with ‘7 vs. Wild’ – but at the moment we are working on creating a female counterpart.

Here we can only speculate about what it is about. The successful concept should be clear: integrate famous participants who bring their own fans into a format that is interesting for viewers. Many shows attract viewers through prominent guests, like the Jungle Camp.
Schubert also had a few words about the Jungle Camp: “We are the ‘Jungle Camp’, but in a drastic way – with real dangers. We already have a similar viewer size as ‘I’m a Celebrity…’.”
What happens after 7 vs. Wild season 3? After 7 vs. Wild season 3, the channel is expected not to remain dormant for 9 months; at least that is one consideration from Schubert.
It is tempting to offer this community an additional format. We have an advantage: as producers, we are well-informed – we have gigantic data – and we have all senses on the community.

We would be interested in your opinion here; would you be happy about another format on the 7 vs. Wild channel?
