Petter Northug is one of two Norwegian personalities confirmed for this autumn’s edition of Let’s Dance in Sweden.

Can Petter Northug dance his way into the hearts of the Swedish public? 

The 40-year-old is set to participate in the Swedish reality series Let’s Dance on TV4 this autumn. 

However, the skier is not the only Norwegian taking part. Martinus will also be among this year’s contestants. 

They will face off against influencers like Lisa Borg, Lilla Al-Fadji, Lovisa “Laki” Karlsson, Christer Fuglesang, Ludwig Blomqvist, and Bianca Salming.

David Hellenius will host the entertainment program, alongside Edvin Törnblom. Hellenius was the host of Let’s Dance from 2006 to 2020. 

Keeping cards close to the chest

Swedish TV4, which broadcasts the reality series, is not commenting further on the details. 

“It’s very exciting that Let’s Dance is returning this autumn, and we are flattered that there is already speculation about who will participate. We will reveal more soon,” writes producer Clara Tengblom to Expressen.
