Savannah Guthrie is taking a temporary step back from her spot on the Today news desk to shoot the primetime Wordle-inspired game show expected to hit NBC in 2027. “I’m headed over to shoot Wordle over the next few weeks,” Guthrie explained during the July 16 broadcast of Today. “We’re going to shoot the whole season, and we’re super excited. Cannot wait for everyone to see it.” Guthrie’s role in the network adaptation of the popular five-letter word puzzle from The New York Times game was previously announced in May with Jimmy Fallon set to produce. And while announcing her role in the upcoming series, which will hit NBC in 2027, she emphasized her gratitude to the series for putting production on pause amid the ongoing search for her mother Nancy Guthrie.“When everything happened with me and my family,” Guthrie explained during a May 11 broadcast of Today, “they just stopped everything and said, ‘We’ll wait for you.’ And Hollywood is like a really tough business, and I didn’t expect that.’ Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/videos/2506760771830/why-savannah-guthrie-is-stepping-away-from-today-for-a-few-weeks
