The series is produced by Primal Media and Studio Lambert, the team behind NBC’s The Traitors. Executive producers include Posey, Tim Harcourt, Jack Burgess, Niall O’Driscoll, Stephen Lambert, David Mortimer, Adam Wood, Mat Steiner, and Susan House, who serves as showrunner.

“‘The Mob’ is a high-stakes reality competition series that sends a group of celebrities to a lavish Italian villa where they will shake down, hustle and whack their way to win up to $250,000 in cash prizes. Every episode, they will tackle mob movie-inspired jobs to survive. But every mob family needs a don, and whoever they choose will have absolute power — deciding who makes money, who stays and who ultimately gets whacked. In a game where power demands absolute loyalty, can the don stay in control, or will the family rise up and overthrow them?”

Hulu unveiled the series during its 2nd annual Get Real House event, which was livestreamed on Wednesday.
