SAS Australia chief instructor Ant Middleton has explained why he wouldn’t want actress Rebel Wilson to appear on the Channel 7 show.
Middleton and Wilson became good pals while shooting a TV special together in Mexico earlier this month.
Set to air on Channel 7 next year, Ant Middleton & Rebel Wilson: Straight Talking will show the two personalities “take on a journey of a lifetime across Mexico with only a 4x4, a backpack and each other’s company”.
After they finished filming, Wilson wrote to Middleton on Instagram: “Thanks for the epic adventure Ant! We crushed the Mexican wilderness x.”
Given their new friendship and the fact Wilson is in top shape after dropping 20kg this year, there was speculation the Pitch Perfect star could sign up to appear on SAS Australia next year.
But Middleton has made it clear that won’t be happening.
“Rebel was a lot more hardcore than she gives herself credit for but SAS wouldn’t be the right course for her,” he told news.com.au.
“Now that we are good friends, I love her way too much to be shouting at her! Plus we are a team now … so she would probably tell me to f**k off.”

SAS AUSTRALIA’S DRAMATIC ENDING
The brutal reality show is set to end tonight on Channel 7.
Yesterday a show insider revealed to news.com.au that one of the celebrity recruits will be deemed “not fit for selection” despite making it through all the show’s challenges.
The insider explained that “just because someone completes the course does not mean they will pass selection”.
The decision as to whether or not a recruit has “passed” is made by the show’s instructors who are known as the Directing Staff (DS).
“They want to see who fits the mould; who has the right attitude, determination and grit they’re looking for,” the insider said about the DS. “The ultimate question the DS are asking themselves is – would we have you in our team; would we want you standing next to us in a war zone?”
But for one celebrity the answer was ‘no’, meaning they made it through the two weeks of physical and psychological torture only to be told they weren’t good enough to make the grade.
“A handful of recruits will complete the course but one of them will not pass selection,” the insider told news.com.au.
When asked how the celebrity reacted when they were told they hadn’t passed, the insider said: “They reacted with dignity and upon explanation, an understanding of the reason for their exclusion.”
The SAS Australia finale airs tonight on Channel 7 at 7.30pm
