RHONJ filming unlikely to resume until 2025 as producers plan reboot
Bravo is reportedly pausing "The Real Housewives of New Jersey."
After the Season 14 finale and the unique reunion, both airing over the next two Sundays, the show is expected to go on hiatus.
“There are not going to be any decisions about what will or won’t happen with the show until early next year,” a source told the Daily Mail.
“Filming will likely not resume until 2025.”
“There is not going to be any more filming of ‘RHONJ’ for the remainder of the year. There’s nothing planned. It’s on ice,” the insider continued.
The current cast, featuring Teresa Giudice, Jennifer Aydin, Dolores Catania, Melissa Gorga, Margaret Josephs, Danielle Cabral, and Rachel Fuda, along with friends Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler, is highly divided and accused of fostering toxicity on social media.
This season, filmed from August to October 2023, also saw viewership drop to a "new series low," according to the Daily Mail.
While Andy Cohen recently said viewers may see “all fresh faces” on the show upon its eventual return, Daily Mail’s insider said, “The cast for the new season is not going to be decided anytime soon. Casting is not something Bravo is rushing into. It’s not even going to start to take form until next year.”
“However,” the source noted, “there are some cast members that are less likely to come back than others based on certain events that have unfolded this past season. But, for two or three cast members, it could be over for good.”
A second source informed the Daily Mail that Cohen is “not ruling out anything” regarding the future of the series, which debuted on Bravo in May 2009.
