In an interview with TheWrap back in May, ABC boss Karey Burke said “Dancing With the Stars” producers had presented a plan to produce a new season of the show that is compliant with COVID-19 safety guidelines.

“The producers have been able to get back up and running in other territories that have opened back up and have innovated in those formats in ways that we’re able to draw upon,” Burke said at the time. “I feel confident that they’ll be able to deliver on the production value that people will be used to.”

“Dancing with the Stars” is produced by BBC Studios’ Los Angeles production arm. Andrew Llinares and Tyra Banks serve as executive producers.
