Netflix Revives Star Search with a Live 2025 Twist

Published: Tuesday 20th May 2025 by Nadia Mumuni

Netflix is bringing back a legend – and this time, it’s going live. The iconic talent showcase ‘Star Search’ is officially getting a 2025 revamp.

Full details below…

Produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment, the team behind ‘Rhythm + Flow’ and ‘The Emmys’, the reimagined ‘Star Search’ will stream live twice a week and spotlight fresh talent across four categories: music, dance, variety/comedy, and kids.

That’s right, the next Beyonce, Dave Chappelle, or Billy Porter could be just one vote away from stardom.

Casting is now open, and while the host and judges are still under wraps, one thing is clear: this isn’t just a reboot, it’s a glow-up with audience voting, real-time eliminations, and major star power.

Let the star-making begin.

    Kelly Rowland as a judge makes sense

    Always thought American idol was meant to be the next Star Search. Rendering this pointless. But at the same time… WHY NOT? It might be interesting if it’s only for the YOUTH (Under 18).

    Waste of time and money. These shows focus more on the judges than talent now and in 2025 it’s strictly entertainment for middle age white women. The winners careers don’t go anywhere. Most successful artists these days are self made thanks to social media ijs!

      The irony that this is coming from a “KellyClarksonStan”
