"Love Island: All Stars" production has been indefinitely postponed due to wildfires in the filming location of Franschhoek, South Africa. The show was set to premiere on Peacock on January 14 but will now air when it's deemed safe to do so.
The situation took a turn for the worse earlier this week when host Maya Jama and the full cast had to flee the set due to the raging wildfires that engulfed parts of Cape Town. According to reports, the production team decided to evacuate the area after a fire broke out close to the villa, posing a risk to everyone involved.
With health and safety being the top priority, Peacock has confirmed that filming will not resume until the situation stabilizes. As a result, the series is now expected to air later than initially planned.
Fans of the show can expect an extended season this time around, with "Love Island: All Stars" set to run for six weeks instead of five like previous seasons. The new season will also feature a longer episode schedule, with new episodes streaming on Peacock every day at 6 p.m. Pacific Time (PT).
The cast for the upcoming season includes popular alumni such as Whitney Adebayo, Belle Hassan, Leanne Amaning, and Tommy Bradley, among others. It remains to be seen when viewers can expect to see these familiar faces compete in the villa once again.
For now, fans will have to wait patiently until a new release date is announced for "Love Island: All Stars".

of all things... wildfires ruining another TV production 
. Can't a reality show get some peace around here? I mean, I guess the producers didn't want to risk everyone's lives, but now we're stuck with an extended season 
and no premiere date in sight 
. At least they're prioritizing health and safety, so that's a plus 
. And, honestly, can't wait to see Whitney and Belle back on the island 
. Maybe this delay will give me time to catch up on my favorite shows instead of waiting for "Love Island" 
.
The production team made the right call, prioritizing safety above all else. 
More content for us, yay! 
I'm loving the idea of new episodes streaming daily at 6 PM PT - that's like, so convenient! 
Can't wait to see Whitney Adebayo and Belle Hassan back on our screens again 
. Just gotta keep an eye out for updates on when they'll finally air the show... Fingers crossed it's sooner rather than later 
this is like the third time something crazy happens on love island and i'm starting to think it's not gonna happen anytime soon 
but six weeks is an eternity for us fans 
and what's with all these delays? can't they just give us a rough timeline or something? 
anyway, hopefully it gets rescheduled soon so we can see what's gonna go down in the villa 
I'm literally gutted that "Love Island: All Stars" has been postponed due to those wildfires in Franschhoek, South Africa. Can you imagine being stuck on a show when there's a fire raging outside your villa? 
But seriously, these wildfires are getting worse by the day, and we need to make sure we're not putting anyone in harm's way. Can't wait until a new release date is announced, though! 
. I was really looking forward to watching Love Island: All Stars and it sounds like we're gonna be waiting forever. The thought of those contestants stuck in limbo, waiting for the all-clear to return to their villa is just cruel 
. That's gotta be a consolation prize for fans like me who love the show. The idea of new episodes dropping every day at 6 p.m. PT is actually kinda exciting 
. Fingers crossed the release date isn't too far off and we can finally settle in to watch some drama-filled island antics.
. And yikes, Franschhoek's wildfires are no joke... fingers crossed everyone got out safely 
. And can we please get an update on when we can expect to see new episodes? 
I'm still shipping Tommy & Belle from last season 
. Six weeks is a looong time, fam 
And now they're saying it's going to be a longer season? Like, are we really going to have to wait even more for this? I'm so over waiting...
can you believe it? 6 whole weeks is a long time... 
please peacock come on and give us an update already 
. Hope everyone stays safe, especially Maya Jama and the cast 
. Six weeks is gonna be a looong time for us fans... can't wait till it's safe to film again 
. Hopefully, they'll get the situation under control soon so we can finally get our reality TV fix
