Is love truly blind? New York City is going to find out.\n<\/p>\n

The popular Netflix show \u201cLove Is Blind\u201d is casting New York City singles who are committed to finding love for an upcoming season based in the Big Apple.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cLove Is Blind\u201d premiered on Netflix in February 2020, changing the way viewers saw dating reality shows. Singles from the same region meet their potential partners on dates and form connections in separate rooms called \u201cpods,\u201d never actually meeting face-to-face. When a true connection is made, the couple gets engaged and meets in person, which in turn presents a new challenge: is their physical connection as strong as the emotional connection as strong as they developed in the pods?<\/p>\n

Donna Driscoll, EVP of Casting & Talent at Kinetic Content, told amNewYork that \u201cLove Is Blind\u201d was previously slated to come to New York much earlier. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, plans changed.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are finally back and more excited than ever. New York is notorious for singles having a hard time finding love,\u201d said Driscoll. \u201c[New York] is kind of the most metropolitan city in the United States. I think the melting pot that we\u2019ll have there in terms of diversity, in terms of culture, age ranges. There\u2019s so many people that are dedicated to becoming successful in their career that they kind of put love on the back burner, you know, or dating on the back burner. So it\u2019ll be great to see, to see how this all pans out with the ensemble.\u201d<\/p>\n

The casting call for New York City is officially open. Driscoll told amNewYork that casting for \u201cLove Is Blind\u201d is a long, in-depth process, with several interviews to understand why a cast member is single and if they would be a good fit for the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want it to be unique to your story, so there needs to be a level of vulnerability and self-reflection ahead of those big questions that come in because we get a lot of answers where people are saying, \u2018Obviously I\u2019m not doing something right,\u2019 or \u2018Why not? It sounds fun,\u2019\u201d said Driscoll. \u201cThe process requires a lot of heart and soul to see it all the way through, so it\u2019s important to figure out your why, ahead of casting.\u201d<\/p>\n

So far, \u201cLove Is Blind\u201d has filmed in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, Houston, Charlotte, Washington D.C., Minneapolis\u2013Saint Paul, Denver, and Ohio. Driscoll thinks bringing \u201cLove Is Blind\u201d to New York will bring a new level of authenticity.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we are going to find a lot of authenticity, and I do feel like people from New York who see this all the way through to entering the pods will be very intentional about why they\u2019re doing that,\u201d said Driscoll. \u201cThere\u2019s an East Coast personality, and if you\u2019re in, you\u2019re in. If you\u2019re out, you\u2019re out. There\u2019s no gray area.\u201d<\/p>\n

And who knows, maybe the love of your life is in a borough you wouldn\u2019t have considered looking in!\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there will be an element to that, too, but also at the same time there has to be an element of getting the right candidates in the mix who are willing to move mountains to find love, not just a house or where they live,\u201d said Driscoll. \u201cWe really want people to be as open to whatever comes with \u2018Love is Blind\u2019 as possible before they go into the pods for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n
