Fox has ordered a third season of competition series BEAT SHAZAM. Jamie Foxx will return as the host/executive producer, while Corinne Foxx will be back as the resident DJ.

“I am beyond excited that BEAT SHAZAM is getting picked up for a third season,” said Jamie Foxx in a statement. “Huge thank you’s to our creator, Jeff Apploff, and to Mark Burnett and MGM, as well as the team at FOX for believing in us and giving us the opportunity to help change more peoples’ lives through our shared love of music.”

“Jamie Foxx is a one-of-a-kind entertainer who continues to bring his signature high energy and love of music to this show,” said Rob Wade, President, Alternative Entertainment and Specials, Fox Broadcasting Company. “It really is great fun for the whole family – including Jamie and his daughter, Corinne, our resident deejay. Together with the brilliant Mark Burnett and Jeff Apploff, they have inspired contestants, audience members and viewers at home to play along, and we can’t wait to see the BEAT SHAZAM band re-unite for Season Three.”
