Thank you for this!!i think the producers get an idea of who will be their main stars each series from the casting process, whether or not they come in as OGs or bombshells. and then i think they try to bring in the rest of the islanders to match the taste of their main stars. if everything was random it wouldnt make much sense because theres no guarantee people's type would match up. i really think danica wasnt hired to be part of the more main cast and they expected her to last very a very short amount of time in the villa. but obviously ekin su, and gemma were hired as main cast and thats why a lot of the boy bombshells we saw come in were very much both of their types. the producers wanted to give as much of a chance of their heads turning as possible. davide was both gemma and ekin sus type so i think they played it safe with him. he's quite reserved and it takes him some time to open up and show his personality so im not sure if he was hired as main cast originally or not. some of the islanders have come out and said that during the casting process, they're asked multiple times of what their type is. even almost on a daily basis when they're in holding getting ready to go into the main villa
Yeah hoping so much this ITV2 show will be not all formulaic and stunted and fake shit. Also hope Ekin doesnt overdo the botox..i mean 27 and botox. So sad
