Another day, another version of Love is Blind. Hot on the heels of Love is Blind: Mexico, which is now airing on Netflix, the streamer is bringing another Spanish version of the popular reality TV show to the platform with Love is Blind: Argentina. The third Latin American spinoff of the popular franchise will feature Wanda Nara and Darío Barassi as hosts.

“We all dream of finding a deep love that is ready to be with us, in good times and bad times,” Nara, a famous Argentine model and TV show host is seen saying at the beginning of the trailer. “But we almost always led ourselves be led from what we see of the other person,” Barassi, an actor and comedian adds. 

“Is it possible to find the love of your life going in blind?” Nara asks, as we get to see the contestants and the pods, while Nara and Barassi explain the concept of the experiment.

Unlike in most other versions of the show, where the hosts are a married couple, Nara and Barrassi are not a couple. Until recently, Nara was famously married to Argentinian footballer Mauro Icardi, but she recently announced the two were getting a divorce

For those unfamiliar with the format, participants of the reality TV show get to know each other without ever seeing each other face-to-face and have to decide whether they are willing to make the ultimate commitment – marriage, before setting eyes on each other. After that, the couple has four weeks together to decide if love is really and truly blind and if they want to end the show married or part ways for good.

Previous spin-off editions of the show have taken place in Brazil, Japan, Sweden, the UK, and Mexico. A version of the show, filmed in the United Arab Emirates, titled Love is Blind, Habibi, has also been announced.
