Guy Fieri Signs $100 Million Food Network Deal
Guy Fieri has signed a new three-year deal with Food Network, sources tell Variety is valued at more than $100 million.
This fresh pact means that Fieri retains his title as the Warner Bros. Discovery-owned cable channel’s highest-paid talent and bests his most recent multiyear deal, which closed in 2021 for $80 million.
Food Network and Warner Bros. Discovery declined to comment on the financial figures.
Under the new agreement, which will take Fieri to his 20-year mark with Food Network, the Mayor of Flavortown will continue to produce more of his Emmy-nominated “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives,” as well as more episodes of “ Guy’s Grocery Games” and “Tournament of Champions.”
Fieri will also continue developing and producing projects with Food Network through his Knuckle Sandwich production banner.
“Recognized everywhere he goes, there is only one Guy Fieri,” Warner Bros. Discovery head of food content Betsy Ayala said. “Guy’s love of food, restaurants, and the chefs behind the dishes, combined with his extraordinary passion for crafting series with stories that resonate make extending this partnership a clear choice in our mission to deliver to viewers more of what they love.”
