After 27 seasons of lies, betrayal and infidelity, one of America’s favorite soap operas has brought its drama to UAE shores.
Multi-Emmy award winning series The Bold and the Beautiful made history this week by becoming the world’s first daytime drama to shoot episodes in the UAE.
The brainchild of the project is the show’s Executive Producer and Head Writer, Bradley P. Bell, who commented: “I’ve been fascinated with Dubai and Abu Dhabi for quite some time because of their spectacular skylines rising up out of the desert on the Arabian Gulf and the fantastic convergence of diverse international cultures.”
“In our story, business mogul ‘Dollar Bill Spencer’ (Don Diamont) whisks his fiancée, Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) off to the Emirates to marry her at this new crossroads of the world. Possessive ex-husband Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) follows them to impose his will on this romantic, stunt-filled action-packed adventure.”
Parts of eight episodes filmed this week in the UAE will air in the US this year from May 23 through June 6, while audiences across the Middle East will see them on broadcaster Dubai One a year later in 2015.
Scenes will be filmed at locations including Atlantis, Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall Promenade and the Skydive Dubai Helipad.
Locations in Abu Dhabi include the Emirates Palace, along the Corniche, Yas Marina Circuit and the Marina.
