Netflix is staging a live darts event in October featuring 19-year-old champion Luke Littler, who will be challenged by members of the public. According to BBC News, Littler will face 20 everyday darts players in a live format. Deadline and the Hollywood Reporter say Netflix is accepting entries and that Littler has posted a video asking amateur players to come forward to take him on. The event is positioned as a public challenge to beat Littler at his own game. Multiple outlets report that the winner stands to receive a large cash prize: Deadline and the Hollywood Reporter both cite £501,000 (about $667,000) as the amount available to the successful challenger. While the outlets describe the concept differently, they agree on the core details: Netflix is producing a live darts show, Littler is the headliner, amateur players are being invited to participate, and the event is scheduled for October with a top prize of roughly half a million pounds for the person who beats him.
