Selling Sunset’s Chrishell Stause, actor/model/Britney Spears ex Sam Asghari, and the one and only Tom Sandoval will head to the Scottish highlands for a captivating game of skill and duplicity in Season Three of The Traitors.
Host Alan Cumming revealed the 21-person cast for the Peacock series, which is set to arrive soon, though an exact premiere date hasn’t been given yet. “Well, there you have it dearies,” Cumming quips in the clip after reading off every contestant’s name. “This is sure to be the most treacherous season yet.”
Joining Stause, Asghari, and Sandoval is a cast filled with an international array of reality stars and celebrities. There are Real Housewives (Dorinda Medley, Dolores Catania, Robyn Dixon, Chanel Ayan) and Survivor-s (Carolyn Wiger, Jeremy Collins, Rob Mariano, Tony Vlachos); a Drag Race-r (Bob the Drag Queen), a couple Big Brother-s (Britney Haynes, Danielle Reyes), and some Bachelor/Bachelorettes (Wells Adams, Gabby Windey).
On top of all, The Traitors Season Three will feature Dylan Efron — younger brother of Zac — professional wrestler Nikki Garcia, and even a British royal, Lord Ivar Mountbatten. A full cast list is below.
The Traitors (which is adapted from the Dutch show De Verraders) premiered in 2023 but really took off during its second season, which aired earlier this year. The show pits the 21 cast members against each other in a series of challenges with the ultimate goal of winning $250,000. Amongst these so-called “Faithful” contestants, though, lurk two “Traitors,” whose job is to eliminate their foes and win the prize themselves. If the Faithful want to split the prize amongst themselves, they must figure out who the Traitors are and banish them.
In an interview with Rolling Stone back in February, Traitors executive producers Mike Cotton and Toni Ireland spoke about adapting the show, its pressure-cooker production schedule, how they think about casting and what they were looking to do for Season Three.
“We want people who can all bring something unique to the show,” Cotton said. “I think that’s what we loved about this season: we had our gamers who’ve done Big Brother and The Challenge, then we had people who were from Real Housewives, we had a British politician, and people from Love Island. We loved all of that. I think we are looking at the same thing next season. I think we’ll still have people who are used to doing competition reality shows, but also those who haven’t. I’d love someone from Vanderpump Rules in the show; I think that’d be brilliant. I’d be lying if that wasn’t on our list. But I also think it’d be really interesting to get more sports people in the show as well. An American footballer is trained to win, so how would they do it in a show like this? Having some people with more academic backgrounds is interesting as well. I think we’re going to look for a similar mix.”
