Can you trust anyone? The Trust winner is close to being revealed after days of deception and alliances.
The new Netflix reality show premiered on January 10, 2024. The premise is simple: everyone is a winner at first and shares a quarter of a million dollars to split evenly. Or will the allure of more money cause them to vote each other out to keep more for themselves? With several rounds of temptations and advantages in The Vault, whoever could win this massive prize is up in the air.
Brooke Baldwin, of CNN Newsroom, serves as host for the series. In an interview with Good Morning America, she said, “It’s a matter of how greedy you are or how selfish or selfless you are, and we flipped the script. The people that you view as “I don’t know if I want these people to make the money” but at the end you’re cheering for them. It blew my mind. It made me think about humanity, it’s sort of like a microcosm of how we view humanity.”
