Zac Efron And Channing Tatum Go Wild- Stars set to join NBC Series 'Running Wild With Bear Grylls': Show Set To Take Them On Wilderness Adventures

Zac Efron is ready to go wild.

Not in the way you're thinking. He actually is taking a trip into the wilderness. The heartthrob will be appearing in a new NBC reality series that is hosted by Bear Grylls, which will follow celebrities as they take on challenges in nature.

The series consists of six, one-hour long episodes that will center around a different star each show. Notable names joining Efron will include Channing Tatum, Ben Stiller, Tamron Hall, Deion Sanders, and Tom Arnold.

"'Running Wild' allows viewers to see inside the hearts and minds of these guests in a very open, honest and vulnerable way, pushing them out of their comfort zones and seeing what they are like in real life when stripped of all the benefits of celebrity," Bear explained in a statement. "Ultimately, this show is about taking these stars on the adventure of a lifetime and being alongside them when they discover something new and empowering about themselves and their world. For me, that is always a privilege."

And adventure they will. From skydiving in the Catskills, to mountain climbing in Utah, and even braving the rough terrain in Scotland, each episode will take the stars on an epic journey around the world.  

"Bear's incredible spirit is absolutely contagious, not only with his celebrity partners but with the viewing audience as well," President of alternative and late night programming at NBC, Paul Telegdy said. "We can't wait to see how these epic adventures will profoundly change those who take the challenge." 

The show will premiere July 28 on NBC.
