The Herald on Sunday understands producers of The Bachelor, Warner Brothers New Zealand, will produce the show for MediaWorks.
Joanne Law, who is a head of development at Warner Bros' International Television Production NZ, was unable to comment and referred the Herald on Sunday to MediaWorks.
The Bachelorette is a spin-off of The Bachelor reality dating show, which ended its second New Zealand series in heartbreak for the bachelor's winning choice, Fleur Verhoeven, and death threats to its leading man, Jordan Mauger, just 72 hours after the show's finale this week.
Most global productions of The Bachelorette see its leading role played by one of the women cast adrift by a recent series of The Bachelor.
There would be no lack of contenders for a jilted star for a New Zealand series of The Bachelorette NZ, with Mauger farewelling all 23 of its bachelorettes either during or after production.
Monday's finale saw Mauger choose Verhoeven over controversial contender Naz Khanjani.
But just days later, Verhoeven revealed she had been dumped.
The break up followed rumours Mauger had wanted to re-shoot the final scene amid fears he had chosen the wrong woman, and revelations from Khanjani she had slept with him more than once during the show's filming.
The break-up swiftly turned Mauger into New Zealand's most-hated man, to the point where Verhoeven felt she needed to step in and defend him.
On Friday, 26-year-old Verhoeven stood by her ex-man and said threats directed at Mauger had to stop.
"I am feeling physically ill by how badly Jordan and his family are being treated," she said.
"Can we for one moment step back and think, maybe the way Jordan has been portrayed over the last few days isn't completely accurate.
"Maybe what we see and hear isn't always 100 per cent true."
