Wisconsin 'Bachelor' star Nick Viall to host new Netflix dating show, 'Age of Attraction,' with wife Natalie Joy

Wisconsin native Nick Viall is no stranger to hosting.

He recently hosted the Season 2 reunion of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives." And, he's been hosting his podcast, "The Viall Files," for years.

Now, the two have landed a gig together. They'll be the hosts of Netflix's new dating experiment, "Age of Attraction," which will examine whether love is ageless, according to a report on Tudum, the streaming service's official companion site.

The show's daters will range from 22 to 59 years old. Matches will see if age is just a number or if the years come between them, the Tudum report said.

"This is a show that allows people to just meet people, (by) getting rid of some of those preconceived notions and barriers, and focus on 'Is there chemistry? Is there compatibility?'" Nick told E! News in an exclusive interview. "That was something that was really exciting for us, because we obviously relate to that."

When the couple first met, Nick had a lot of nervousness, reservations and fears about why he and Natalie wouldn't work, he told E! News. But, they worked through their own "preconceived notions" and he's so glad they did with the relationship and family they have now.

According to Deadline, "Age of Attraction" is being produced by Velvet Hammer Media. Its showrunners will be Sam Dean — showrunner of Netflix's "Love Is Blind" and executive producer of "FBoy Island" — and David Friedman, executive producer of Netflix's "Temptation Island" and showrunner of "Bullsh*t: The Game Show."

The eight-episode season — filmed in Whistler and Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada — will air sometime in 2026, per Tudum.
