The Circle season 4 Netflix release date and time - how to watch online right now By Kelly Woo published 4 May 2022 Spice Girls Emma Bunton and Mel B are entering The Circle season 4 (Image credit: Netflix) Look who's entered The Circle season 4 - it's the Spice Girls! Or two of them, anyway. Netflix's social media-based reality TV show is welcoming Baby Spice Emma Bunton and Scary Spice Melanie "Mel B" Brown into the collective. Two dancing woman emojis, microphone emoji, heart emoji, send! We're fist-pump-emoji excited for more of The Circle, which has been a huge hit for Netflix since it debuted in January 2020. The concept mashes up Big Brother and Catfish, with contestants living separately in the same building and only able to communicate by messaging each other through The Circle app. Some contestants choose to take on different identities in the hope of winning over the other players. In fact, the Spice Girls are playing as a guy named "Jared." If they can fool the other contestants, the prize money will increase to $150,000. "We loved that idea that a celebrity or celebrities could have complete anonymity in The Circle and they could play along without anybody knowing that they were there," executive producer Toni Ireland told Entertainment Weekly (opens in new tab). "We were so lucky to get them because they're just absolute icons that transcend generations. They're worldwide superstars and they're so much fun, and that's what the show's all about. And they were totally up for the game." Can Emma and Mel B pull it off? Shrug emoji! It'll be fireworks emoji to see what goes down.
