Summer House is returning to Bravo for an 11th season — but no casting decisions have been finalized just yet.
“I have heard reports and everything is premature. We’re still figuring out the cast,” Bravo’s VP of current production, Josh Brown, told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published on Thursday, June 4. “Anything that people are reading — we’re just not there yet.”
Brown confirmed that Summer House casting decisions aren’t “officially” made until late June. (The show traditionally starts filming in The Hamptons during 4th of July weekend.)
“We’re definitely talking about casting, and we’re obviously talking about next season a lot, but no final decisions have been made yet,” Brown added. “Every week we get closer, so yes, we are closer!”
Bravo fans have several questions about who will appear on the upcoming Summer House season in the wake of Amanda Batula and West Wilson’s relationship reveal.
The costars announced that they are dating with a joint statement shared via Instagram in late March. Amanda was married to fellow Summer House star Kyle Cooke for four years before moving on with West, her best friend Ciara Miller’s ex. The season 10 reunion, which airs its third and final installment later this month, has shown the fallout of Amanda and West’s romance.
A source told Us Weekly late last month that Ciara hasn’t made a final decision about returning to the show just yet.
“Ciara is thinking about coming back to the house,” the insider shared. “Likely for one last season to prove a point.”
The source noted that “there is a chance she will face Amanda and West” if she goes back to The Hamptons this summer. The cast, however, is skeptical about Ciara’s return “because they don’t think she will face them.”
The same insider hinted that production “may not even ask West to come back because he was lying to them about other women he was dating.” The season 10 reunion revealed that West was dating Meija Moreno just before the Amanda scandal broke.
“Producers are not happy that he’s been lying to everyone,” the source added. “Kyle, Ciara, the rest of the cast have been vulnerable, at least about who they were dating.”
The season 10 Summer House finale had emotional moments from the cast, almost as if they knew there was change to come. Brown addressed this during his THR interview on Thursday.
“It really surprised some of the cast, I think, especially the original cast, about how emotional it was. I think it was unknown territory for everyone,” he said. “Kyle and Amanda were at a place in their marriage they’d never been at before that I think was scary to each of them. They didn’t know what was going to happen in real life to their marriage.”
Kyle, Amanda and Lindsay Hubbard were also gearing up to start filming In the City, which brought in a totally new aspect.
“Nothing about that said that was the end of their time on Summer House. But they knew, ‘We’re in unknown territory now. We’re onto a new series, after 10 years of filming on this other series,’ which was very familiar to them,” he added. “I think it felt new and I think everybody got caught up in the emotion, including the production crew. It was emotional for everyone.”
Part 3 of the Summer House season 10 reunion aris on Bravo Tuesday, June 9, at 8 p.m. ET.
