Love Island USA confirms hunky boys for new series — but some fans already crave bombshells

Love Island USA has confirmed their first five hunky boys for the all-new 2023 series - but not all fans are impressed with the lineup.

Peacock TV - the channel which broadcasts the show in America - have confirmed their group of OG boys for the new season will be Leonardo, Keenan, Bergie, Victor and Marco, with the news being unveiled on social media today.

Sharing a "meet the boys" graphic on Twitter and penning "The Boys are bringing the heat!" fans were a little underwhelmed when they scrolled down and were faced with the five hunks. One fan penned: "The boys are not giving!!!!" while another echoed: "The boys are not giving at all!!!" and a third wrote: "I'm ready for the bombshells."

But although some weren't best pleased with the lineup, some seemed quite smitten and hot under the collar over some of the castmates. But one in particular really got pulses racing. Victor left one fan penning: "I might have to watch love island USA just for Victor. Wow." And another then wrote: "Need him."

"He’s gonna be my fav boy i’m calling it rn," someone else said about Leonardo. While in regards to Marco, someone wrote: "OHHHH… sign me up for this one."

Peacock announced that the new series - which is series five - will return to screens in the US on July 18. The series is reported to take place in Fiji with an all-new group of singletons ready to find love. The casting team began looking for contestants and 2023 castmates back in December 2022.

Last year saw Modern Family star Sarah Hyland host the hit series, with the brunette beauty taking over from Arielle Vandenberg’s hosting duties. And the winners of Love Island USA 2022 were British babe Zeta Morrison and her then-boyfriend Timmy Pandolfi. Although sadly the 2022 winners parted ways five months after being crowned as the winners.

The only couple still together from last year's series are Sydney Paight and Isaiah Campbell, with the smoking hot couple often sharing snaps on Instagram and glimpses from their smitten romance too.

Love Island USA catapulted onto screens in America for the first time on July 9, 2019. The format is relatively the same as the UK version, although there are a few differences like the location and the way in which the show pans out.
