Gladiators star Wolf looked unrecognisable as he appeared on Good Morning Britain today with his son.
The popular show is being rebooted in the coming months and Wolf's son is keen to follow in his dad's footsteps and join the show when it comes back next year. Wolf - real name Michael Van Wijk - chatted with the show's hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard about why the previous reboot by Sky didn't work and how his son was keen to join this version.
His son appeared alongside him, and revealed he was regularly called Wolf Club growing up - and thus would make a great addition.
During the chat with hosts Ben and Kate, Wolf said he was desperate to be the 'bad' one of the Gladiators, but bosses weren't keen until he suggested it. When he tried it out, he was immediately at home and it continued throughout the series.
Wolf appeared on the show between 1992 and 2000 and he is now 70-years-old. His son Dean is keen to follow in his footsteps and became a Gladiator too, but they're both as competitive as one another.
Asked who would win out of the pair, the father and son both insisted: "Definitely me."
Wolf insisted he would still be able to do all the challenges set for him.
"To be honest I could do all the games comfortably," Wolf said as he opened up on the reboot, "I would also like to be like you guys and be a co presenter as well. I have never missed a show in the whole eight series.
"We train at different gyms but we are very very competitive."
Dean previously admitted to The Sun : "It’s a bit daunting to think about, especially because he was the number one with his character. But I’m up for it. I can’t be exactly the same as him but I will try bringing something else to the show."
He recalled one time where he was in the Gladiator studios.
"I remember my dad taking me on the show. He made me a little Gladiator outfit. He got me on his shoulders and ran around the arena with me. I remember the crowds screaming," he added of the moment.
