"They will have to go through the process. but we have already a pool of really really good bombshells lined up.
"There's some people in that mix that are really under the radar as well.
"The casting team have been working for quite a while now. Gone to lots of different events and been out and about looking for people and I think they've done a brilliant job.
"We always have those killer bombshells to come in."
Not only can fans expect serious drama when old wounds are opened and perhaps spicy connections are revisited, but there promises to be some of the most X-rated scenes in years.
Bosses have decided they will show couples romping after five years of keeping the sex sessions off air.
Mike told The Mirror: 'If sex happens, we'll show it. The Hideaway will be open 24 hours.'

Angry Love Island fans flood Ofcom with complaints over decision to bring back axed star as they spot ‘boss's game plan'
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ANGRY Love Island fans have flooded Ofcom with complaints over the decision to bring back an axed star, as they spotted the 'boss's game plan.'

The public previously turned on Megan after she dumped Tommy for Conor in her final few days. Now, since Megan's villa exit, Shakira and Conor have grown close. And angry fans have accused bosses of bringing Megan back to jeopardise the romantic connection that Shakira and Conor currently have. One person wrote: 'At this point LI is bullying Shakira… the girl has been going through it, soon as she has a little high they help bring her back down.' A second penned: 'Production clearly has it out for Shakira,' and a third echoed: 'At this point, just say you don't want Shakira to win.' Fans have speculated that Meg's return is all part of a game plan to stop Shakira from winning, by disrupting what she has with Conor. And they also think show bosses are pushing for either Meg or Helena to win the show. And some fans have taken to X to say they've complained to Ofcom about Megan's return as a result, adding 'we voted her off for a reason.' Love Island fans 'work out' the THIRD star to be dumped after cruel twist as they claim girl is doomed One person penned: 'Filed an OFCOM complaint against love island, this show deserves to be cancelled. I'm soooo serious!!!' Someone else penned: 'Submitting my first OFCOM complaint now that they've bought Meg back.' A third echoed: 'Production doing everything to stand in Shakira's way. Filing an IPSO.' Megan said before heading back to Love Island: "I'm excited to go back in, I think I left quite abruptly and I'm going back in for some clarity. "It was an easy decision to make. When you can't speak to people for a couple of weeks and have to watch them on telly every night, you want some answers." The announcement came shortly after Maya Jama returned to dump a couple from the island. Islanders were ordered to line up in their couples as Maya announced the results of the latest public vote for their favourite boy and girl. Maya revealed the bottom three girls were Billykiss, Emma, and Angel and the bottom three boys were Boris, Conor, and Harry. With the fewest votes, Emma and Boris were dumped from the island, ending Casa Amor's most talked-about comeback and Love Island's biggest love triangle. Both Emma and Boris had entered the villa as Casa Amor bombshells.

Brooklyn Beckham slammed for comment on wife Nicola's naked bath photo
Billionaire heiress, Nicola Peltz, has shared a nude photo of herself, posed to perfection in the bath, however her husband Brooklyn Beckham's response hasn't gone down well Brooklyn Beckham has been slammed by fans after commenting on his wife's jaw-dropping photo. Nicola Peltz, 30, made sure all eyes were on her in the saucy snap, which she proudly posted on Instagram and in which she poses to perfection in the bath - completely nude. The billionaire heiress captioned the image: "Best memories" with a string of holiday emojis as proud hubby Brooklyn, 26, gushed: "I took the photo in the bath" followed by a love heart. However, fans were distinctly unimpressed with his response, with several calling him out in the comments. Claiming the reply was 'totally unnecessary', one quipped: "Hey, every time we know you took the photo, don't have to say it every time." Another replied: "Well, that should get some tabloid coverage" as a third sniped: "He has no choice! He has to do everything she says." Meanwhile, a fourth fumed: "We get it, you guys love each other. Maybe spend more time telling each other than telling the world." However, there were some positive replies, as one fan responded: "Some nasty comments from jealous people! Wow ... be better. They're a beautiful young couple who happen to be rich ! Good luck to them I say." It comes as the feud between the couple and the Beckham family continues to rumble on, with Brooklyn and Nicola showing no signs of reaching out to David and Victoria after swerving the England star's 50th birthday in May. Brooklyn and his brothers, Romeo and Cruz, also do not follow each other on Instagram as rumours of in-fighting between the siblings continue to swirl. As the feud continues, Brooklyn's godfather, Sir Elton John, has reportedly stepped in to try and fan the flames of peace after hosting the wannabe chef and Nicola in Cannes. The music legend, 78, recently took the young couple for lunch in the celebrity mecca alongside husband David Furnish. The gathering took place at the upscale La Guerite beach club, where the group reportedly addressed the strained family dynamics. 'Elton is the showbiz equivalent of Switzerland,' a source told The Sun in relation to Elton's peace-keeping attempts. 'He's utterly neutral in this row.' And while the Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting) star may have previously leaned into celebrity rivalries, such as his past feud with Madonna, those close to him say he's now more interested in maintaining peace. The insider claimed: 'Elton of old may have relished in taking sides - in this case his young godson, Brooklyn, but two years off his 80th birthday, he's a man who has seen and done it all. "He just wants everyone to be happy."
