"The Bachelor" is currently filming its 21st season, and next year, fans will get to see Nick Viall handing out the roses as he looks for love for the fourth time around. The network has released the first official promo for the new season, and this time, it looks like the 36-year-old will finally get to meet his perfect match as 30 single women compete for his heart.
In the clip, viewers can see how Nick's heart has been broken over and over again before he dons a nice suit and tells the camera that he is the next Bachelor. At the mansion, the ladies look excited to meet him, and one of them says that she wants Nick "right now."
"I'm killing it," says the new Bachelor as the ladies giggle.
Nick was a contestant on season 10 and season 11 of "The Bachelorette" where he was runner-up to both Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe. He also appeared on the third season of "Bachelor in Paradise" before he was announced as next year's Bachelor by the network.
Steve Carbone of Reality Steve has the scoop on production, and it was claimed that filming is in the middle of the overnight dates as of this week. This means that there are only three contestants left, and another will be eliminated before the week is over.
Carbone added that despite reports that the final four contestants have been spoiled by other blogs and media outlets, the blogger said that the claims aren't true and that he has real information on two of the ladies who made the final four. Carbone said that Raven Gates and Rachel Lindsay are included in the final four, with Rachel's hometown date filmed in Dallas, Texas on Sunday, Oct. 30, while Raven's hometown date was filmed in Hokie, Arkansas on Tuesday, Nov. 1.
Raven currently owns a boutique called Grey Suede. According to Carbone, the 25-year-old was picked by Nick to go on a 1-on-1 roller skating date in Waukesha.
Rachel graduated with a B.S. in Kinesiology and Sports Management from University of Texas at Austin in 2007. The 31-year-old got her law degree from Marquette University Law School in 2011 and currently works as a lawyer at Cooper and Scully in Dallas.
"The Bachelor" season 21 premieres Monday, Jan. 2, 2017, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
