Question

If I made it through an audition and was told I would be called if they were interested, will I still be contacted if I don't make it?

Community Answer

Probably not. Shows usually only contact those who pass an audition.

Question

I submitted the audition request for my 9-year-old son. It's been a month and I haven't heard back. Should I submit another application?

Community Answer

You must be 18 years or older to be considered for acceptance. Along with this, you must be a citizen of the United States, not be running for political office, and not have any familial connections relating to the show’s affiliates. Eligibility requirements can be found in Step 2 of the wikiHow article.

Question

Are there any plans to reinstate taping new episodes of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? I want to see this program back on the air even if it takes a short hiatus.

Community Answer

The show has come back on ABC primetime, although as of this season, it is a celebrity-only season with no audience due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Whether this Prime Time version will stay on the air or open up to the general public is yet to be determined.

Question

Will I still be on the waiting list for Who Wants to Be a Millionaire if I got a phone call to be on it, but I couldn't attend?

Community Answer

You should let them know if you haven't already because if you are a no-show, this will cause a major issue for production.
