“For this 33rd season, Father Fouras intends to complicate the task for these candidate-celebrities in two ways. With the return of fearsome cult events such as mud wrestling, Excalibur or the legendary puzzles in the Fort watchtower… And with the help of secret weapons: the 9 assets, with which Father Fouras regains power. These 9 assets, symbolized by cards, each represent a different strategy for the 9 shows. They will come to twist and modify certain tests, to spice up the adventure of the candidates even more“, has indicated France 2 in his press release.

“These assets are the promise of a different show each week thanks to specific rules. Father Fouras will thus be able to call on a mystery warrior to come and help him, decide to place the evening under the sign of prohibitions by preventing, for example, the candidates from shouting in a frightening adventure… or choose to curse a candidate who will continue the tests until he has won a key or a clue!“, also added the public channel. In addition to Olivier Minne, the various characters who populate Fort Boyard will also be back during this 33rd season. Passe-Partout, Passe-Muraille, Sheriff Willy Rovelli, Blanche, Rouge and the Boo family will all be there.
