Netflix are reportedly moving ahead with their Building the Band reality series following the recent passing of judge Liam Payne. News of Building the Band first broke in August 2024, with Netflix revealing they had recruited Payne as a judge for the show alongside the Pussycat Dolls' Nicole Scherzinger and Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland.

Liam Payne is set to appear as a judge on an upcoming Netflix competition show filmed months before his death.

Netflix will release a talent show judged by One Direction star Liam Payne later this year, it has confirmed. Building the Band was one of the last projects Payne worked on before he died at the age of 31 following a fall from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires,
