Jimmy Fallon will produce show, which will begin filming over the summer, based on New York Times’ hit word game
Savannah Guthrie is to present a TV game show based on the New York Times’ hit word game Wordle, the newspaper announced Monday.
It will be the first new onscreen venture for the host of NBC’s Today show since her return in April after the disappearance two months earlier of her mother.
In her own reveal on the Today show, Guthrie, 54, said the project had been in the works for some time – but was delayed by her leave of absence after Nancy Guthrie vanished from her Arizona home on 1 February.
The 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie has not been seen since, despite an intensive months-long investigation. Authorities believe she was probably the victim of a kidnapping.
