A trailer for the programme shows the disguised daters dining in restaurants, drinking in bars, bowling and axe throwing.
Netflix said in a statement: “Ready to say goodbye to superficial dating? Sexy Beasts is the dating show that takes looks completely out of the equation using fantastical, cutting-edge prosthetics to transform the daters – giving them a chance to find love purely based on personality.”
It will “put true blind-date chemistry to the test”, the streaming giant added in a tweet. Sexy Beasts launches on Netflix on July 21st. – PA
