Peacock’s The Traitors has just revealed its star-studded cast for season 3. Did your favorite make the cut?

On Wednesday, the host of everyone’s favorite psychological game show, Alan Cumming, appeared on The Today Show to reveal who would be a part of what he says is sure to be the most ”treacherous” season yet.

“The new season of ’The Traitors’ cast is unlocked at last,” Cumming said before disclosing the names of the 21 notable stars who would descend upon the Scottish castle where the show is filmed. And what a cast!

The cast includes Chrishell Stause from Selling Sunset; Wells Adams from The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise; Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules; Dorinda Medley from The Real Housewives of New York City; Britney Haynes and Danielle Reyes from Big Brother; Bob the Drag Queen from RuPaul’s Drag Race; Chanel Ayan from The Real Housewives of Dubai; Gabby Windey from The Bachelorette; Rob Mariano, Tony Vlachos, Carolyn Wiger, and Jeremy Collins from Survivor; Dolores Catania from The Real Housewives of New Jersey; Robin Dixon from The Real Housewives of Potomac; Bob Harper from The Biggest Loser; Ciara Miller from Summer House, and former professional wrestler Nikki Garcia.

Also included is model and actor Sam Asghari, who many know as the ex-husband of pop star Britney Spears; Dylan Efron, brother of actor Zac Efron, and British royal Lord Ivar Mountbatten (ahem, Queen Elizabeth's cousin).

“Well there you have it dearies,” Cumming said following the unveiling.

The Traitors is a spinoff of the party game Mafia. Cumming divides the players into “Faithfuls” and “Traitors.” And that’s when the scheming, conniving, and manipulation comes in as Traitors know who else is a traitor, while Faithfuls only know that they are a faithful. The Faithfuls are tasked with sniffing out and eliminating all of the Traitors by the end of the game. If they are successful, the faithfuls split the prize money (the season 2 pot was approximately $208,000). However, if any traitors remain they take it all.

A release date for The Traitors season 3 has not yet been announced but we can’t wait for the treachery to begin.
