Heidi Klum And Tim Gunn Leave ‘Project Runway’ For Amazon Series

Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn are saying “auf Wiedersehen” to “Project Runway” after 16 seasons.
The Emmy-winning duo will instead make the leap from cable to streaming by partnering with Amazon Studios to create a new fashion reality series for Amazon Prime Video, Deadline reports. They will develop, produce and host the show.
This means the beloved co-hosts will not be returning to “Project Runway” as the show leaves Lifetime and heads back to Bravo in 2019.

The model made the announcement on Twitter Friday, noting that she was “honored to host and help create” the acclaimed series and “it’ll always have a special place in my heart.”
“I am grateful to Project Runway for putting me on a path I never, in my wildest dreams, thought my career would take me!” Gunn said in a statement, per The Hollywood Reporter.
Amazon Studios did not release many details about the charismatic pair’s upcoming and untitled project, but according to a press release obtained by the Los Angeles Times, the new show will feature a “shoppable experience for viewers.”
“[W]e believe their next iteration in this space will find an even larger audience on our global Prime Video runway,” Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke said in a statement. The new series will be available in 200 countries.
Whatever the end result may be, we know they’ll make it work.
