Grab your cloaks and your predatory headbands; a third season of The Traitors is among us. It feels like just yesterday we were meme-ing “Oh Lord, sweet baby Jesus, not Ekin-Su.†Now we’re getting ready to usher in a new cast of reality stars to compete for cash in Scotland. And we finally have a look into what we’re going to be getting into in the New Year. Everything we know about The Traitors, U.S. season three, including a new trailer.
The Faithfuls and Traitors entered the castle
A bunch of reality stars in a room, calling each other liars? That’s just a Tuesday. But getting them together competing in challenges with snakes and explosions? That’s just called Traitors season three. A month ahead of the premiere in January, we’re sneaking a peak at what insanity the cast is getting themselves into that can only be found in the castle, like taking Sandoval “seriously.†This is a game of deception after all, and everyone is in on it. “Baby, I’m going to be employee of the month,†Bob the Drag Queen declared, as they should!
Who’s heading to Scotland?
Similar to last season, the cast of Traitors can be divided up by the gamers, people from competition shows, and the “housewives,†a general term used by contestants last season to describe anyone from a lifestyle show.
For the gamers: Rob Mariano, Tony Vlachos, Jeremy Collins, and Carolyn Wige are all from Survivor; Britney Haynes and Danielle Reyes come from Big Brother; Bob the Drag Queen reps RuPaul’s Drag Race; Bob Harper is from The Biggest Loser; and the final “gamer,†Nikki Garcia, is a former professional wrestler.
As for the formal housewives, there are four joining this season: Dorinda Medley (The Real Housewives of New York City), Chanel Ayan (The Real Housewives of Dubai), Dolores Catania (The Real Housewives of New Jersey), and Robyn Dixon (The Real Housewives of Potomac). Their Bravo cousins, Ciara Miller (Summer House) and Tom Sandoval (Vanderpump Rules), are also competing alongside Dylan Efron (Down to Earth With Zac Efron) and Chrishell Stause (Selling Sunset). While there’s no Pilot Pete this season, Gabby Windey (The Bachelorette) and Wells Adams (The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise) are coming from Bachelor Nation. The final two cast members aren’t from reality tv but have had their lives in the spotlight: Lord Ivar Mountbatten, who’s a British royal, and Sam Asghari, a model, actor, and ex of Britney Spears.
When is Traitors season three out?
The castle returns with three episodes on Peacock on January 9 at 9 P.M. ET.
