Media and entertainment powerhouse, Banijay Entertainment, today announces the first international adaptation of high-stakes culinary format 100 Knives, <\/em>with a local Danish version commissioned by TV 2, and produced by Metronome, part of Banijay Nordic.<\/p>\n The deal marks the format\u2019s expansion following the debut commission for Mastiff Sweden from TV4. \u00a0The Danish adaptation, filmed on the established set in Stockholm, will premiere this autumn on TV 2. Co-developed with Bunim\/Murray Productions, part of Banijay Americas, and Smart Dog Media, 100 Knives<\/em>throws 100 chefs into a pressure-cooker arena where teamwork, speed and precision determine who survives the heat.<\/p>\n From Michelin-star talent to food content creators and aspiring culinary stars, contestants compete in brigades through escalating challenges that test skill and leadership. With each episode, chefs leave the competition and brigades are reshaped, tightening the kitchen until only the strongest remain, culminating in one ultimate winner who proves they can thrive and lead under pressure.<\/p>\n Tina Christensen, MD, Metronome says: <\/strong>\u201c<\/strong>100 Knives<\/em> is high-intensity format that pushes contestants to deliver at an exceptional level. Its scope, energy and emotional drive set it apart, while the calibre of talent bring genuine culinary excellence to every challenge. Delivering the first international version has been a major creative opportunity, and collaborating with colleagues at Mastiff Sweden has allowed us to retain the format\u2019s ambition while shaping it for TV 2\u2019s audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n Thomas Richardt Str\u00f8bech, Channel Controller, TV 2 Denmark, says: <\/strong>\u201cWith its huge cast, fierce eliminations, wild twists and emphasis on teamwork, 100 Knives<\/em> brings together the best elements of reality television. The contestants\u2019 passion for their craft is unmistakeable as they make fast, pressure-cooker decisions with absolute precision. Viewers will quickly find their favourites to champion throughout, driving incredibly gripping television from the very first episode.\u201d<\/p>\n James Townley, Chief Content Officer, Development at Banijay Entertainment says: <\/strong>\u201cThe swift international uptake of 100 Knives<\/em> reflects the growing demand for premium, emotionally driven formats that deliver scale and ambition.
