Alan Cumming is planning and plotting another treacherous season of Peacock‘s smash hit The Traitors — and now we know exactly who’ll be entering the castle for this thrilling third round of deception and murder!
The cast is again filled with reality TV legends and other notable figures, including a member of British royalty and a professional wrestler. The 11-episode run (plus reunion special) is set to drop some time next year, and will feature competitive reality stars from The Real Housewives franchise, Survivor, Selling Sunset, The Bachelorette, RuPaul’s Drag Race, Vanderpump Rules and so many more.
For the uninitiated, the unscripted competition series sees contestants tackling a series of challenges with the objective of accumulating a large cash prize. But three of the contestants are traitors looking to steal the prize out from under the other contestants known as “the faithful.” If the faithful can work together to banish the traitors by game’s end, they will win the prize pot. But if just one traitor makes it to the end, he or she will snatch the cash.
Season 2 completed its run on March 7 when The Challenge stars Trishelle Cannatella and CT Tamburello banished the game’s final traitor Kate Chastain to win the prize pot. That cast also included Survivor‘s Parvati Shallow and Sandra Diaz-Twine, Big Brother‘s Janelle Pierzina and Dan Gheesling, Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Phaedra Parks and more.

Has this show replaced Dancing With the Stars – “has beens” now have a different place to go?
Not at all.
Dancing With The Stars was mainly for has been actors, athletes and singers.
This is for reality stars – some of whom are irrelevant (or never were) BUT some are actually currently relevant as it relates to their particular show.
The way Boston Rob, Dorinda or Dolores got this in the bag either as Traitors or Faithfuls. No one else on this cast seems smart enough like these three.
You must not be familiar with Bob the Drag Queen.
Britney and Danielle are BBUS goddesses. Either could win
Any of these people could win. It’s a completely different game than BB. Look at what happened to Dan last season. He came off as an idiot in Traitors.
Hopefully they’ve watched both seasons so they can see what he did vs what Cirie did and take the notes that can get them the furthest.
Boston Rob will probably go out first like Johnny Bananas
If it plays out like last season, they will be heading down the path of NBC/Bravo against everyone else. It was brutal. Having some of the cast no each other is an unfair advantage. They should be all strangers, but I imagine the realty television world can be pretty close knit for some this cast..
Yeah but no one from NBC or Bravo won, so there’s that.
It would have looked really bad if someone from NBC/Bravo did win.
I don’t think they have to all not know each other, as you have pointed out even when they aren’t on the same show the Bravo lot certainly all run in the same circles and the competition reality lot have often crossed paths. It’s casting too many from shows/networks where they are inclined to work together where the problem arises as it can ruin the game a bit for example last year with less Bravo people made it a bit predictable as even if one had suspicions there were too many for them to even consider breaking rank
Ugh. Not a fan of the cast at all. I would prefer a non-reality “star” season, much like the ones that air in other countries. The Australian version is my favorite, and it isn’t close. Rodger Corser is excellent as the host.
The Australian version was amazing, even when the faithfuls weren’t.
The Australian version has too many twists and turns. It’s my least favorite.
Haven’t seen this show since the first season as I don’t have any streaming services so I watch the ones from other countries that appear on broadcast channels.
Season 2 aired on E! cable channel 2 months after it ended on Peacock.
Rob is the only person I would care to watch. Why did they have to ruin it with using only reality people instead of people who haven’t been on anything before? Haven’t watched since the first season bc of that. Thank goodness for the other countries.
Ugh! I’m so tired of Boston Rob. Hopefully he goes first.
100% Oversaturation at it’s best, or worst, depending how how you look at it. He won’t go early though, they’ll purposely keep him around. And by they I mean TPTB. Cuz, yeah, scripted reality TV, lmao!!!
I don’t recognize a single one of these people because I don’t watch any of those shows but season 2 was so bad because of all of the reality show people. I was hoping this season would be just made up of regular people. Guess I’ll be skipping it.
Hope you’re watching the UK version then!
The UK version is okay, I just don’t like the host.
Both the U.K. and U.S. versions are held in the same castle. In the U.S. version they give the impression that the cast stays at the castle overnights. The U.K. version they spend their nights somewhere else other than the castle, but they don’t say where. Weird.
Made worse by having Andy Cohen (who I can’t stand) host the reunion show for season 2.
ohhhh Sam is going to get hammered with Questions about Britney
Yeah, I’m surprised that that they didn’t mention that he is Ex Mr. Britney
The producers should have pursued Monica Garcia from The Real housewives of Salt Lake City! She was the reality star of the year and the producers squandered their chance!
Wow – some of these folks are going to get crushed, and that’s going to be hard to watch.

Love Rob, as soon as he is off the show I’m done.
Sorry, they just lost me at Boston Rob. How many freaking times do they need to keep casting this guy on shows? I’m generally upset that they have turned this into only Reality Stars, but his casting takes the cake. I’m out.
Some hate repeats, some love ’em. You do you. Turn the channel.
I’m fine with it being Celeb/Reality stars as it actually gives it a different feel to the game rather than normal people (although I actually don’t know why they don’t take a leaf out of the UK Big Brother and do a regular and celeb version each year, the regular version especially is cheap to produce and would give peacock more content) BUT they really need to get the balance better, as we saw last season with the Bravo lot and as we have seen on the Challenge with the influx of Big brother contestants (or even Challenge US where you get a roughly even number of BB and Survivor contestants and the rest are outnumbered) there is often a connection which forms an almost instant alliance which is hard to break down. Imho we need fewer from each group thats likely to automatically band together.There are way more reality shows out there (plus celebs who aren’t from reality tv who would do it) that they could get a better balance, where are the Amazing Race contestants (I suppose you could put Rob in that), where people from The Challenge (although with the next season of that being battle of the era’s maybe most of the ones they would want and would do it are busy), where’s the Circle or the Mole etc etc
Yeah, I’d love to see more people from The Challenge but you’re 100% right in that the ones of note – i.e on the level of CT, Bananas, Trishelle – were probably locked up for Season 40.
Love all the cast on this show. Do have my all time favourites and will be happy to see them in this casting. Good luck to all!
So much for Sam’s “acting career”.
ahhh….no guests from the challenge. Really enjoyed CT and Johnny Bananas last season. Even though Bananas was voted out way too soon.
Won’t watch due to dorinda and Tom s are on show no one can stand these two individuals especially ugly dorinda vrty poor choise
Won’t be watching. I want to see normal everyday people on the show. TV so called stars make it morose.
when is traitors starting.
