Peacock has revealed the all-star cast competing in Season 2 of “The Traitors,” featuring a wide variety of reality stars, athletes and even a politician.
Hosted by Alan Cumming, the show gathers 21 players in a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands to compete in challenges to earn a cash prize of up to $250,000. But there’s a catch: some of the competitors, dubbed “the Traitors,” are designated to work from within the ranks to steal the prize from the other contestants, known as “the Faithful.” The season is currently in production and expected to premiere in early 2024.
Season 1 of the competition series became a big hit for the streamer, prompting the production of a reunion special hosted by Andy Cohen. Season 2 will consist of 11 hourlong episodes and a reunion special.

The Traitors will return to scheme again on Peacock.
The breakout unscripted series has landed a second season renewal three weeks after its premiere.
A renewal was a no-brainer, but the speed at which the show got picked up is pretty crazy.
The streaming service typically waits until more data is available, but if you pay attention to social media, the show has broken through in a way many TV shows can only dream of.
Hosted by Alan Cumming, this unscripted competition series is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game.
Twenty contestants (including reality A-listers) come together to complete a series of challenges with the objective of earning a cash prize.
The catch? Three of the contestants coined "the traitors," will devise a plan to steal the prize from the other contestants, coined "the faithful."
