Peacock has revealed the celebrity cast for the next season of its reality competition series The Traitors, which is scheduled to premiere in 2027. The announcement, made on September 18, 2026, brings together a diverse group of actors, reality TV stars, athletes, and musicians to compete in the game of deception set in a Scottish castle. Host Alan Cumming will return to oversee the season, which follows the show's recent success at the 2026 Emmy Awards, where it won all seven of its nominations, including outstanding reality competition program for the third consecutive year. The cast includes Broadway and television star Kristin Chenoweth, actor Dominic Monaghan known for Lord of the Rings, and reality personalities such as Whitney Leavitt from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Bianca Del Rio from RuPaul's Drag Race, and Taylor Hale from Big Brother. The season comes amid expansion for the franchise, with Peacock having renewed The Traitors for three additional seasons, extending it through season 8. This follows the debut of a civilian spinoff, The Traitors New Blood, which premiered on NBC on September 17, 2026, and streams on Peacock the next day.
