We spoke w/ Dwayne Wade about 'The Cube' Season 2, being a game show host, and his unpredictable career path.
Hosted by NBA Champion Dwayne Wade, who is also an executive producer through his production company 559th & Prairie Entertainment, the TBS competition series The Cube is back for its second season, with the kind of edge-of-your-seat energy that you’d expect when a $250,000 jackpot is on the line. Each pair that appears on the show has nine lives to complete seven games, some of which they must tackle on their own while others include teamwork, inside an intimidating glass box.
Did you look to any other hosts for inspiration? Before you started doing this, did you watch other hosts? Did you watch and pull anything from the British show, or talk to anyone that had done it? As you started doing these things that were unexpected and that you didn’t think you would do, or were even necessarily on your radar, has that changed the perception of what you feel like you can actually do?
What’s new and different about Season 2? What are you most looking forward to with this new season? Were there things that, after doing the first season, you knew you could shake up or change with the second season? WADE: I’ve definitely tried that, but you feel bad. I walk out with my head down, every time. I try to walk out with my head up because I’m on TV, but they’re like, “Hey, you’re the professional athlete who has all these accolades. You do this.” I get a chance to play these games. The contestants don’t. No one gets a chance to come in and warm up. I’m the only one that gets the chance to do it, so I know the strengths and the weaknesses of certain games.
WADE: I don’t know. It’s always hard with everyone’s schedules, when you’re trying to get celebrities. And we’re in a certain location and not going to them. We got a chance to get Shaq, right before he took off for his 50th birthday. We were so lucky to even be able to get him. He came in and didn’t know any of the rules. I was like, “Bro, let’s just have fun, in front of a live audience,” and he was game for that. You’ll get a chance to see Shaq on the show, and he’s hilarious.
