Cohen expressed his excitement for the upcoming international venture during an appearance on "TODAY."
"Everything's bigger in Dubai, and I couldn't be more excited to launch Bravo's first international Housewives series in a city I've been fascinated by for years, with an outstanding group of friends as our guides," he said.
He added, "Get your passports! Our eleventh city, we're going to the billionaire's playground, the city of gold, the desert oasis!"
So far, no cast members have been revealed -- though some have started to speculate that "Ladies of London" star Caroline Stanbury could join the group, after she was seen moving to the United Arab Emirates in the series finale.
