It may be hard to believe that soap hunk Antonio Sabato Jr. needs help looking for love, but the actor is teaming up with VH1 to find that special someone!

"At the age of 36, I'm finally ready to settle down," Antonio tells Variety.

The sizzling-hot actor's series will put a bevy of beautiful contestants through a set of challenges to win his love. The twist? The tasks will center around the theme of soap operas, the television genre Antonio is best known for, says the paper. Challenges may include re-creating love scenes and skydiving in a gown!

VH1 executive Jeff Olde tells the paper that Antonio is "the fantasy man for many of our [VH1] viewers, and now that fantasy can become a reality."

Filming for the show will begin later this year.
