The show comes from Dori and fellow Israeli firm Abot Hamieri in collaboration with Peru's América Televisión, Kapow and Open Kimono. A Peruvian version, made by American Estudios, is set to launch mid-2025 on leading commercial network América Televisión.
The Auction pits pits two teams of five family members against each other in an auction setting. Each team is given an equal budget and tasked with acquiring prizes with the highest value, while trying to reach the final and win the show's grand prize.
'Our fruitful collaboration with Abot Hameiri has once again created a new unscripted format with the potential to become the next big global format franchise,' said Dori CEO Nadav Palti. 'The Auction has all the elements of a classic game show in an auction setting, filled with suspenseful, funny twists and eye-popping prizes. We are proud to collaborate with our partners – Kapow and Open Kimono – and, together with América Televisión, Peru's top-ranked network, to bring this thrilling new show to their audiences.'
Fernando Muñiz Betancourt, CEO of America Televisión, added: 'For America Multimedia and America Studios, this is an important opportunity to demonstrate our ability to produce high-level content, while also successfully delivering it on the country's most important screen and its digital platforms.'
Agustin Sacanell, co-CEO of Argentinian production house Kapow, said the show is the 'result of an international creative synergy that deeply inspires us,' adding: 'We have always backed ideas with original DNA and global ambition, and this format is proof of that.'
Kapow is one of two Argentina-based producers attached to the show, with Nicolás Grapper, CEO of the other, Open Kimoni, adding: 'We strongly believe in this new IP that Abot Hameiri and Dori Media created and we are counting the days to enter into production.'
The Paris Unscripted Showcase will run for the first time in the French capital from Monday until Wednesday (April 28-30) at the Sofitel Arc de Triomphe. Distributors descending on the event include Dori, 2P2L, Banijay, Can't Stop Media, Dreamspark, Effervescence, France TV Distribution, Fremantle, Global Agency, Keshet International, M6 Formats, Media TV, Mediawan, Primitives, Rabbit Films, Satisfaction Group, Sony Pictures Television, Webedia and WeMake Productions.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti Kiss on PDA-Filled Yacht Outing in Spain
The Aug. 15 outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship NEED TO KNOW Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti shared a kiss during a PDA-filled yacht outing on Friday, Aug. 15 The outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship DiCaprio and Ceretti were first romantically linked in 2023 Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti are soaking up the sun in Spain. The actor, 50, and the model, 27, were spotted on a PDA-filled yacht outing near the island of Formentera on Friday, Aug. 15, per photos obtained by the Daily Mail. The couple shared a kiss as they spent time lounging together on the boat and swimming in the Mediterranean Sea, the pictures reveal, giving a rare glimpse into the pair's romance. The couple — for whom traveling and yachting have proven to be favorite pastimes — was spotted spending time together and mingling with a larger group on the boat, the photos show. At one point, they shared a smooch as they sat in the shade, taking a break from the Spanish sun. Ceretti also appeared to place her hand on DiCaprio's backside as they walked up stairs together, one snap shows. Ceretti wore an animal-print string bikini, while DiCaprio sported a pair of black swim trunks. At different points, the pair both wore goggles as they appeared to take a dip in the Mediterranean. Earlier this summer, the pair — who have been romantically linked since August 2023 — were spotted on the way to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding welcome party, which they later attended. On June 26, the actor and model were seen leaving the Gritti Palace Hotel in Venice, Italy, en route to the event, which preceded Bezos and Sánchez's nuptials. DiCaprio, a longtime friend of the newlyweds, wore a dark suit and black baseball cap, while Ceretti opted for a long, neutral dress with textured fabric and stitching down the sides. She had her hair styled in a chic updo, and carried a nude clutch bag. Prior to the rare sighting, a source revealed to PEOPLE that DiCaprio and Ceretti were expected to attend the star-studded wedding. Months earlier, Ceretti opened up about her relationship with DiCaprio in an interview, marking the first time she's done so since the pair were romantically linked. In a cover story for Vogue France (translated from French), the model discussed her dating life with the star, who was referred to simply as a "very, very famous actor" in the feature for the magazine's April 2025 issue. Ceretti revealed that the pair first met "in Milan,' but said, 'I prefer not to go into details.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human-interest stories. She also shared her stance on the potential risk of being recognized for her relationship with DiCaprio rather than for her own career. "As soon as you're in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become 'girlfriend of' — or 'boyfriend of,' for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,' she told Vogue France. 'Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so's girlfriend who was so-and-so's ex. So, it's not nice to think that you can't love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you.' Ceretti also said that dating someone whose star is as large as DiCaprio's is 'something you learn.' 'If what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed,' she told the French outlet. 'Because love protects and gives confidence."

‘Handsome grandpa' Macron makes a splash on holiday in south of France
Emmanuel Macron has been pictured making a splash during his surfing holiday in the south of France. The images, which have been shared widely by the media in France, mark a stark departure from the sobriety of the French president's usual crisp attire and serious demeanour. Instead of his signature dark blue suit, Mr Macron was captured in a wetsuit, riding a hydrofoil board and grinning widely during sunset. 'But what a handsome grandpa,' read the cover of Voici, a weekly celebrity and gossip magazine that posted the photos of Mr Macron on its cover on Thursday. Brigitte Macron, the French first lady, was also captured riding a jetski with one of her grandchildren while following her husband on the hydrofoil. The pictures were taken earlier this month at Fort de Brégançon, the French president's summer residence, a medieval fortress and the official retreat where French leaders have been holidaying since 1968. The fort is located about 100 feet above sea level on a rocky islet near the Mediterranean in the South of France in Bormes-les-Mimosas. TMZ, the celebrity tabloid news site, also commented on the president's athletic physique under the headline 'Flexing political muscles'. It said: 'French Prez Emmanuel Macron looks like he's been hitting the gym ... because he just showed us what he's been packing under his suits – and he's got a six-pack of abs.' It is not the first time Mr Macron has been praised for his athleticism. In 2024, official photos showed the French president with bulging biceps as he boxed a punching bag. Between hydrofoil sessions on the open water and excursions into town for a stage show with French comedian Dany Boon, Mr Macron has also been spending his summer holidays conducting state and international business. On Sunday, the president engaged in high-level talks with Sir Keir Starmer and Friedrich Merz, the German chancellor, in a video conference to discuss the next stage of peace talks in Ukraine. The trio will be part of a delegation of European leaders who will join Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian leader, in Washington on Monday to meet with Donald Trump. An unnamed source close to the president told Le Figaro: 'It's non-stop. He's making calls from Bregancon and spending his days exchanging messages with his counterparts.' Residents said the French president kept a lower profile than usual in the area. The owner of a bar-restaurant told Le Parisien: 'Sarkozy used to come and get his freshly squeezed orange juice. [Jacques] Chirac and [François] Hollande used to come and see us, but we don't see Macron anymore. I think he is no longer very popular.' Broaden your horizons with award-winning British journalism.
