Cast portraits for The Traitors Season 3 have been revealed, and this season is a reality TV fan’s dream come true. Selling Sunset, Real Housewives, and Bachelor alumni compete in the new season, which premieres on Peacock January 9.
Alan Cumming returns to host the award-winning series, where twenty reality stars and celebrities come together to play a real-life murder mystery game at an ancient castle in Scotland. The contestants will undergo a series of physical and mental challenges for a chance to win $250,000.
However, hidden amongst the Faithful competitors are the Traitors, who have a secret mission to “murder” the Faithful and claim the cash for themselves. If the Faithful successfully unveil all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund.
Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming season, plus a sneak peek of the cast portraits.
This season’s star-studded lineup includes everyone from WWE royalty to Survivor standouts to a Ru Paul’s Drag Race winner. Here is the complete cast list, in alphabetical order:
Lies, murder and betrayal abound in the third installment of The Traitors. In the Season 3 trailer, which was released on November 22, Cumming carries a torch through the Scottish moors as he prophesizes, “By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes.” Reyes shows her competitive edge, declaring how you need to be a “cold-blooded killer” in this game, while Ayan admits she “loves blood.” Fire, snakes, clowns, and mysterious masked figures are teased, but Bob the Drag Queen seems unfazed: “Baby, my mama didn’t raise no fool.”
During Season 2, The Traitors became the #1 unscripted series in the U.S. across all streaming platforms. It also received four Primetime Emmy award nominations, winning two for Outstanding Reality Competition Program and Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program. Following Season 1, The Traitors took home the Emmy Award for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program.
Season 3 of The Traitors will premiere exclusively on Peacock on January 9, 2025. In the previous season, the first three episodes were dropped on premiere day, while the following episodes dropped weekly. Season 3 will likely follow the same airing schedule.
