THE REAL FULL MONTY STRIPS DOWN Next MONDAY, DEC. 9 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX and Next Day on HULU

ABOUT THE REAL FULL MONTY:

Inspired by the beloved, award-winning 1997 film, The Real Full Monty is an all-new two-hour special in which a daring group of male celebrities will volunteer to bare all to raise awareness for prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer testing and research. The special will air on Monday, December 9 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

Emmy- and Golden Globe-nominated actor, comedian and producer Anthony Anderson (We Are Family, 75th Emmy Awards, black-ish) rallies a cast of male celebrities, including himself, Taye Diggs (All American, How Stella Got Her Groove Back), Chris Jones (3x Super Bowl Champion, Kansas City Chiefs), Tyler Posey (Teen Wolf), Bruno Tonioli (Dancing with the Stars) and James Van Der Beek (Varsity Blues) to encourage men to get checked and strip the stigma around prostate, testicular and colorectal cancer.

During the two-hour special, Anderson will lead Diggs, Jones, Posey, Tonioli and Van Der Beek as they train and rehearse for the most revealing performance of their careers, culminating with a big strip-tease dance, choreographed by Emmy Award-winner Mandy Moore (Choreographer for So You Think you Can Dance, La La Land, and Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour), where they will bare all in front of a live audience. Leading up to the final disrobing, the men will expand their limits, test their modesty and strengthen their bond with a series of rehearsals and experiences, both private and public, designed to build confidence and remove them far from their comfort zone and forge a brotherhood. Along the way, each of the celebrities will share their personal stories of how cancer has impacted their lives.

FOX’s all-new special is based on the international unscripted format first broadcast on the U.K.’s ITV in 2017, garnering awards, massive viewership and critical praise. The special has since been broadcast in the U.K. annually, and the format has successfully expanded into Australia, France and the Netherlands.

FOX’s The Real Full Monty is produced by Spun Gold TV (a 53 Degrees Global company) and FOX Alternative Entertainment. The Real Full Monty is executive produced by Anthony Anderson, Dan Norris and Ashley Edens, who also serves as showrunner. Executive producers from Spun Gold include Nick Bullen and Daniela Neumann.

“Colorectal cancer is preventable and has a 91% survival rate when caught early, yet many Americans age 45-49 are not getting screened as recommended. We applaud FOX and the cast of The Real Full Monty for stripping the stigma associated with screening to help save lives.” – Michael Sapienza, CEO of the Colorectal Cancer Alliance

About The Prostate Cancer Foundation

The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) is the world’s leading philanthropic organization dedicated to the research and eradication of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men, with 1 in 8 men diagnosed in their lifetime. Right now, one man dies every 15 minutes from prostate cancer in the United States. PCF’s vision is to end all deaths from prostate cancer by raising awareness and funding urgent, cutting-edge research.

“We are committed to supporting awareness for individuals who are at high risk of early or aggressive disease. Prostate cancer is most treatable at its earliest stages. The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) is dedicated to empowering men and their families by helping them understand their risk and providing the tools they need to take control of their health.” – Gina Carithers, President and CEO of the Prostate Cancer Foundation

About the Testicular Cancer Society

We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit, public charity that is committed to raise awareness and education for the most common form of cancer in men ages 15-35 and provide support for fighters, survivors and caregivers. Through our omni-channel, award-winning campaigns and award-winning partnerships we are not just increasing awareness but creating a culture of self-examination to increase the chances of early stage diagnosis, when testicular cancer is almost 100% curable. Our support programs are designed to help those affected by testicular cancer navigate the best path forward and unite via community. Whether it is connecting those newly diagnosed to testicular cancer experts or to peer survivors, our goal is to assure each individual has the most positive outcomes for decades of their survivorship. Our goal is to be the resource on testicular cancer, to raise awareness and save lives.When testicular cancer is no longer taking the lives of those affected, way too early, our mission will be complete.

“Lights, camera, awareness. We applaud The Real Full Monty for helping bare the fact that early detection of cancer saves lives.” – Mike Craycraft R.Ph., Survivor and Founder of the Testicular Cancer Society
