After months of excitement following the teaser released post the “Survivor” Season 46 finale, the contestants for “Survivor” Season 47 have now been revealed.

The new season of this popular CBS reality competition will introduce 18 fresh castaways left to survive on a Fijian island. They will compete both in teams and individually, targeting the title of “sole survivor” along with a million-dollar reward.

This season’s players come from diverse backgrounds, including a flight attendant and an E-Sports commentator, all tasked with forming alliances, building community, and plotting against each other to secure their positions.

One cast member that might be familiar to viewers is Jon Lovett, a well-known podcaster and Crooked Media co-founder, who previously served as a speechwriter for former President Barack Obama.

The season kickoff is set for Wednesday, September 18, featuring a two-hour premiere episode, followed by 90-minute episodes for the remainder of the season. The show, hosted by Jeff Probst, has been captivating audiences since 2000.
