Disney's Buena Vista distribution arm confirmed that the format has been sold to AXN, who will produce one version for audiences in Poland, the Czech Republic and Hungary, and another for Asia-Pacific.
Steve Macallister, MD at Buena Vista, said: "This is the first pan-Asia format deal for a reality-competition show and an excellent example of how great content can transcend geographies and cultures."
The US original is currently airing its eighth season, a themed 'family edition', on CBS.
