The Mole on Netflix
Netflix’s revival of The Mole in the United States, hosted by Alex Wagner and filmed in Australia, is the fourth civilian season and sixth season overall.
The Mole season 7 has completed filming, and a report suggests its host is not only a fan of the Anderson Cooper original, but is also a gay broadcast journalist, too.
Netflix renewed The Mole for season two, the seventh U.S. season overall. While the announcement left me with more questions than answers, the casting application has details.
I interviewed Greg Shapiro and Avori Henderson about their experiences on Netflix’s The Mole, from how they were cast to their strategy on quizzes. They revealed a lot about their thinking, and how the game worked.
The Mole executive producer Chris Culvenor and I talked about Netflix’s revival of The Mole, and he answered all of my questions about the choices producers made, from the age of the cast to ADR to a possible season two.
I talked to the winner of Netflix’s Mole, the mole, and the runner-up, and together they shared stories and insights about what we didn’t see, from journals to full missions to time with Alex Wagner.
Netflix’s The Mole has been revealed. Spoilers ahead in my recap of episodes nine and 10, which included the final tests, and finally answered: Who is the mole, and who is the winner?
