Jason Oppenheim Teases If Selling Sunset Could Go Through Cast Overhaul

With feuds and drama at an all time high on Selling Sunset, could there be a cast overhaul for season 10?

Jason Oppenheim weighed in on the possibility during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly at the T-Mobile exclusive unveiling at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, saying, “This is a larger decision between Netflix and production, to be honest.”

Oppenheim, 48, noted that “every option is still under consideration” before filming begins. He also broke his silence on Chrishell Stause exiting the hit Netflix show after being involved since it premiered in 2019.

“She’s a grown woman. She can make her own decisions and what’s best for her. I think everyone on the cast should be making their own [decisions],” he noted. “Right now [she is still working for the Oppenheim Group]. That’s another decision that she’ll make.”

Oppenheim continued: “It certainly wouldn’t come from me [if she left]. I leave it to everyone to figure out. And of course, there’s also Netflix and production, who have a say too. So I try my best to not make decisions, if that makes sense.”

The reality series became an overnight success for Netflix as viewers were introduced to employees at high-end Los Angeles real estate brokerage. Over the years, viewers have watched falling outs, fights and ongoing feuds.

“I don’t like it. I want to get it back to real estate,” Oppenheim told Us. “We can create a really, really amazing show without anything below the belt. Some of our best seasons were without [that].”

Oppenheim would love to see the show return back to basics.

“I think there should be a fun show — like an escape show — for people to watch. Not a show that turns people off or divides people,” he said. “That’s ridiculous. That’s honestly one of the most attractive things about Selling Sunset is that it can be such a fun show to just cuddle up with your partner and just enjoy. We don’t want to have people arguing after they watch an episode.”

While Netflix has not yet renewed Selling Sunset, Oppenheim is holding out hope for a more peaceful season 10. He also addressed concerns about more possible exits since Amanza Smith and Chelsea Lazkani don’t currently have active real estate licenses, according to the California Department of Real Estate.

“As a practical matter, what happens is that agents every year have to renew their licenses. Sometimes they forget and so you just get a notification,” he clarified. “Tthen all you do have to pay a fine. I don’t think that that’s necessarily indicative of much. It’s happened to a lot of people.”

Selling Sunset is currently streaming on Netflix.
