Greg James is fronting the new show
The BBC Radio 1 presenter is set to host 'Rise and Fall' on Channel 4, which comes from Studio Lambert and Motion Content Group, the teams behind the hit BBC series.
In a statement, Greg said: "I’ve been waiting a long time for a show like this to come along that I can get stuck into and be the ringleader of.
"It’s an amazingly mad idea and the contestants are going to make some incredible TV.
"It’s very exciting to launch something brand new on Channel 4 and I can’t wait to see how it all plays out. Let the power struggle begin…”
The programme will see 16 ordinary British people "from all walks of life and ages" as they start the game as equals before finding themselves either as a Ruler or Grafter.
In a position of power, the Rulers will live "in an opulent penthouse", with the Grafters stuck in the basement.
In a press release, Channel 4 explained: "Greg James will oversee the action as the Grafters work hard to complete a series of gruelling games and challenges to build a cash prize fund only the Rulers can win.
"The Rulers must encourage the Grafters to work harder, but if they push them too hard, they might find themselves toppled from power.
"Anyone can rise to a position of power and anyone can fall, but only one Ruler can win the prize fund at the end of the game. Who rises and who falls will be decided by the other Players."
The 18-part series is coming soon to Channel 4 and All 4.
