MTV is bringing back “Punk’d.”
The hidden-camera celebrity prank show, originally hosted by Ashton Kutcher from 2003 to 2007, will return with Kutcher as an executive producer.
But the “Two and a Half Men” star will not be in front of the camera.
As Gossip Cop reported back in August, a rotating group of hosts including Justin Bieber is expected to be involved.
According to new reports, MTV will announce more details about the revived “Punk’d” – including hosts – during its New Year’s Eve countdown on December 31.
The network has been in the nostalgia game recently, bringing back old favorites like “Beavis and Butt-head” and “Yo! MTV Raps.”

During MTV’s New Year’s Eve broadcast, it was officially announced that “Punk’d” is returning on March 19.
As Gossip Cop reported back in August, the hidden-camera show will feature a series of rotating hosts, including Justin Bieber, Kellan Lutz, Bam Margera, and former “Punk’d” star Dax Shepard.
In the preview aired during MTV’s New Year’s Eve celebration, “Punk’d” guest host Miley Cyrus, along with pal Kelly Osbourne, pull a prank on Khloe Kardashian in which a food delivery man uses Cyrus’ bathroom, and gets his balls caught in his zipper.
“Punk’d” is produced by former host and creator Ashton Kutcher.

The New York Post reports that Justin Bieber is hosting a rebooted version of MTV’s “Punk’d.”
The paper says Bieber’s first victim was Taylor Swift, whom he pranked last week after having taken over for original host Ashton Kutcher.
Yet while The Biebs “punked” Swift for one episode of the show, a rep for the singer tells Gossip Cop he’s NOT taking over as the full-time host of the rebooted show.
According to reports, the new “Punk’d” will feature a different celebrity host every episode.
