Report: Nine returning to Celebrity Apprentice
Nine heading back to boardroom ...but is it time for a female boss?

Nine has reportedly commissioned Warner Brothers Australia to make a season of The Celebrity Apprentice for 2021.
The Australian reports casting is underway for the anchor role, previously played in Australia by Mark Bouris (pictured), with Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest and retail king Solomon Lew apparently on a wish list.
Here’s an idea, why not a female boss for 2021? I also wish the show returned to its roots of non-celebrities, but that’s just me…! I suspect with so many out of work performers there will be no shortage of potential cast.
Fremantle previously produced the series four times for Nine, but rights have now swung to Warner Bros.
Star Mark Bouris later reappeared in The Mentor for a single season on Seven.

Oh God not Twiggy Forrest. No no no.
Clive Palmer for me !
Are we talking about Janine Allis? I’m not familiar with Janine Ellis.
Whoops, you learn something new every day, apologies to Janine 🤭
Janine Ellis was the first person I thought of too
Janine Ellis with a non-celebrity cast would make watch. Celebrities would not.
The trump US version is so much better of course.
Please please pleaseeeee be a big new host!
Melanie Perkins of Canva please.
It would be interesting to see young tech blood, rather than old white male resource tycoons.
Its had its day in my view.
Ohhhh I’d love to see Mark Bouris return! Is it too early to start speculating on celebrities?
What an odd commission. The concept of “you’re fired!” doesn’t sit well in this current climate of unemployment.
Should be fine if it’s celebrities for charity?
If they can hold off filming till February, Mr. Trump will be available then.
I Agree with you David, a return to non Celebrity version is overdue. As for female boss, Janine Ellis is the first name that came to my mind. Gina Reinhardt could be interesting too 😉
Great minds, I thought of both too, but probably because they are most prominent. Not a chance for one of them, ha.
Even with a celebrity version, most of them will be non-celebrities anyway 😀 Seriously though, yes a standard version would be better, with a place for the winner at the chosen firm. More to play for.
Ooo, great minds, I came to comment the same thing about Janine Ellis. We could pull from the same pool and go for another Shark from “Shark Tank”and go with Naomi Simson.
