Dillion Passage, star of Tiger King, has shared further information on a bonus episode dropping on Netflix later this week.
The former bartender, who married Joe Exotic in December 2018, spoke about the upcoming instalment of the well-received series to Andy Cohen, explaining it would be a “live episode, kind of like a reunion”.
However, Dillon won’t be making an appearance as he admitted: “Netflix didn’t contact me to apart of that”.
When asked if Joe’s arch-nemesis Carole Baskin would star, he revealed he had “no idea” if the Big Cats Rescue founder would be involved.
“It’s more like a talent interview,” he told Andy on his Sirius XM radio show, “that’s how [the producer] described it.”

Dillion’s radio interview comes days after Jeff Lowe dropped the bombshell cameras had returned to G.W. Zoo in Oklahoma, formerly owned by the now-jailed Joe Exotic.
During a video message, Jeff let the cat out of the bag, explaining Netflix is “adding one more episode” and it will be “airing next week” on the streaming platform.
“They are filming here tomorrow,” he added.

Tiger King follows the surreal tale of a gay, mullet-wearing private zookeeper who calls himself Joe Exotic.
The show features a menagerie of big cats, wacky employees, and misfit lovers, and documents Joe’s rise and fall.
He is currently serving 22 years behind bars for 17 counts of animal abuse, along with his murder-for-hire plot to kill Carole Baskin.

With the 57-year-old currently behind bars in FMC Fort Worth prison, the incarnated tiger fanatic has yet to tune into the seven-part series, but is loving the attention the documentary has brought him.
Dillon revealed Joe has been getting “hundreds of emails” from fans of the show.
Speaking to Andy Cohen on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy, he said: “He’s in jail, so he can’t necessarily watch it, but once the show dropped he was getting hundreds and hundreds of emails to his jail mail, and he was ecstatic.”
