Austin: Casting Call for Netflix’s ‘Love Is Blind’ Upcoming Season

Kinetic Content, the production company behind the popular reality dating show ‘Love Is Blind’, has announced that it will hold casting calls in Austin starting July 30, 2025. This season of the show aims to attract single men and women who are looking for love and are ready to engage without having met their potential partners face-to-face.

The format of ‘Love Is Blind’ allows contestants to connect through “pods”, where they can communicate freely but cannot see one another. This unique setup leads to engagements that take place before any in-person meetings. The show has successfully filmed previous seasons in Texas, specifically in Dallas for Season 3 and in Houston for Season 5.

In addition to Austin, interested contestants can apply from several other cities, including Philadelphia, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Charleston. However, the specific location for the upcoming season’s filming has not yet been revealed.

To participate, individuals must apply online through Kinetic Content’s casting platform. The application process is extensive, requiring applicants to complete over 60 questions that delve into their dating history, relationship goals, and partner preferences. Additionally, applicants must submit a video introduction and photographs, creating a comprehensive profile for the casting team to review.

Application Requirements and Casting Team Expectations

Applicants must be at least 21 years old, single, and residents of the United States to qualify for consideration. Kinetic Content emphasizes the importance of authenticity and the need for applicants to demonstrate a genuine desire for a long-term commitment. The team is looking for individuals who identify as “brave,” “open-minded,” and ready for a committed relationship.

Show Popularity and Effectiveness

‘Love Is Blind’ first premiered in 2020 and has garnered a significant following, with eight seasons aired to date in the United States. A ninth season is set to premiere on October 1, 2025. The format of the show has not only captivated local audiences but has also been adapted internationally, with successful spinoffs produced in countries including Brazil, Japan, Germany, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.

As of January 2025, 10 couples from previous U.S. seasons of ‘Love Is Blind’ were still together, showcasing the show’s potential for forging lasting relationships. Austin has previously hosted various reality shows, such as ‘Twentysomethings,’ ‘The Ultimatum,’ ‘The Real World: Austin,’ and ‘Married at First Sight,’ making it a familiar hotspot for reality television production.

For those interested in love and commitment, now is the time to act. Aspiring contestants for the upcoming season of ‘Love Is Blind’ will need to complete their applications soon, as the show continues to promise an unfiltered journey into finding love beyond the traditional dating norms.
