'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' will reportedly air earlier this year, to avoid a clash with the World Cup.
I'm A Celeb to avoid World Cup clash
The show - which will return to the Australian jungle for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began - is set to be moved from its late November slot, in order to prevent viewers having to choose between it and the FIFA World Cup.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Two of ITV's biggest juggernauts - not just of the season but the whole year - are 'I'm A Celeb' and its international football coverage.
"So it makes sense to keep them apart, and as the World Cup isn't going to budge, it makes sense to move Ant and Dec.
"The last thing anyone wants is for viewers to have to choose between the latest from the jungle and a big game.
"At the moment nothing has been confirmed - but whatever ITV do will be in the best interests of viewers."
The Qatar World Cup will start on November 21 this year, with the final set to be played on December 18.
An ITV spokesperson said: "It's too early to confirm scheduling for the show."
