YAAAS! The Beloved Fab Five Are Bringing Their Infectious Message of Self-Care to Tokyo

• Netflix, the world's leading entertainment service, has announced that it will start the production on four special episodes of the Emmy® Award-winning original unscripted series Queer Eye, titled Queer Eye: We’re in Japan!

• The Fab Five - Antoni Porowski (Food & Wine), Bobby Berk (Interior Design), Jonathan Van Ness (Grooming), Karamo Brown (Culture), and Tan France (Fashion) - will bring their expertise to Tokyo, working with local tastemakers to make-better a new group of heroes, while they learn and experience Japanese cuisine, fashion, design, grooming and culture firsthand.

• In Queer Eye: We’re in Japan!, the Fab Five will forge relationships with four Japanese men and women from different backgrounds and cultures who were selected from a wide group of applicants and nominations.

• “In just a year since we launched season one, Queer Eye has become a global phenomenon once again and the Fab Five are truly the ambassadors of self-care and compassion that the world needs now more than ever. Filming in Japan is a wonderful opportunity for us to work with four deserving heroes that will help showcase the incredible traditions and customs of their country.” [Comments from David Collins, Creator and Executive Producer of Queer Eye]

• Queer Eye: We’re in Japan will debut globally on Netflix in 2019, preceded by Queer Eye: Season Three which was filmed in Kansas City, Missouri.

• In the production, Netflix will invite one lucky fan of Queer Eye for an opportunity to meet the Fab Five. Please see the Netflix Japan Twitter for the details. [Only in Japan]
