People have asked but to be um, I’m so busy right now doing a lot of stuff so for me yeah I’m not sure but it’s on the plate. It’s not that ‘no’ you know, it’s not a ‘yes’. So, it’s 50 50 right now,” said Bolt.

Bolt also revealed that he was approached for the show, but due to his severe workload, he had to turn down the opportunity.
