Ben Polson became the first contestant to win after four seasons. His prize was $400,000 and the title of ‘Australian Ninja Warrior’.[25]
Nine Network announced a fifth season on 16 September 2020.[26] Casting applications are open until 30 November 2020.[27] The series was again relocated, filming took place in Homebush, New South Wales.[28] In June 2021, Nine announced Nick Kyrgios would be joining the series as a sideline commentator alongside Shane Crawford; Freddie Flintoff will not be returning due to travel challenges and a busy schedule.[29] The fifth season began airing on 20 June 2021.[30]
On 15 September 2021, the series was officially renewed for a sixth season at Nine's upfronts.[31][32] In October 2021, Fordham quit as series host.[33] In November 2021, Nine announced Madderns contract was not renewed and she would be leaving the network effective immediately, in which she will be resigning as the show's host.[34][35] In January 2022, Jim Courier and Leila McKinnon were announced as the new hosts of the series, with Will & Woody as sideline commentators.[36] The sixth season began airing on 27 June 2022.[37]
On 15 September 2022, the series was cancelled by Nine and wouldn't return in 2023.[2][3]
Format
[edit]Potential contestants go through a rigorous series of obstacles before the possibility of becoming the next Australian Ninja Warrior and win a cash prize, starting at $100,000. If there is no winner in a season the prize will jackpot and rise by $100,000 until someone eventually conquers Mount Midoriyama.
From the third season, the format changed slightly with the most successful contestant who goes the furthest and fastest guaranteed to win $100,000 should they not conquer the course, but will win the growing jackpot should they conquer Mount Midoriyama.
