From Hollywood to Home: Black Voices in Entertainment
The Traitors is back in early 2026, and season 4 is already giving Emmy-worthy levels of drama before a single cloak has been donned. Yes, theyโre back in that moody Scottish castle. Yes, Alan Cumming is still serving haunted butler couture. And yes, the cast is uhinged in the best way.
Letโs break this wild list down, because itโs a mix of fame, strategy, spice, and chaos that deserves your full attention.
The Real Housewives May Or May Not Form An Allianceโ-But Porsha & Candiace Could Clash, Again
The Housewives did not come to play this seasonโthey came to dominate. Five of Bravoโs finest are packing their glam and game faces.
- Dorinda Medley (returning from last season like the ghost of Traitors pastโiconic)
- Lisa Rinna (you already know the drama is about to be on 10)
- Candiace Dillard Bassett (sharp tongue, sharper reads)
- Caroline Stanbury (luxury meets cold-blooded strategy)
- Porsha Williams (no one combines charm and chaos like Porsha)
Mind you, Candiace Dillard Bassett & Porsha Williams have already starred alongside each other on the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and they didnโt exactly mesh in Thailand.
Still, if they donโt form a Real Housewives alliance, weโve missed the crossover of the century.
Survivor Players Are Built for This
The Survivor tribe has spoken, and three seasoned pros are stepping into the castle with receipts and game.
- Rob Cesternino, reality podcast king and low-key strategy machine
- Yam Yam Arocho, charisma personified (donโt let that smile fool you)
- Natalie Anderson, the beast herself, if sheโs a Traitor, itโs over for the Faithfuls
Theyโve outwitted, outplayed, and now theyโre out for blood.
Big Brotherโs Watchingโฆ and Scheming
Representing the BB house:
- Ian Terry, the quiet genius and fan-favorite winner
- Tiffany Mitchell, the master manipulator behind the Cookout
Theyโve both survived alliances, blindsides, and live feeds. The castle? Light work.
Reality Royalty, Olympic Ice, and a Touch of Drag Magic
Weโre not done. Weโve got:
- Colton Underwood (The Bachelorโs most dramatic rose recipient ever?)
- Mark Ballas (Dancing with the Stars legend, ready to waltz into war)
- Monรฉt X Change, straight from the Drag Race Hall of Fame! Expect shade, sparkle, and strategic slayage
- Kristen Kish, Top Chef winner, which means sheโs used to high-stakes, hot tempers, and sharp knives
- Maura Higgins and Robert Rausch (Love Island lovers or liars?)
The Wild Cards We Didnโt Know We Needed
Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir: Olympic ice dancers turned bestie assassins?
Eric Nam: K-pop heartthrob with hidden cunning? Donโt sleep.
Ron Funches: Comedian by day, secret Traitor by night?
Stephen Colletti: From One Tree Hill to Castle of Lies. We love to see the glow-up.
Michael Rapaport: Loud, New York, and probably calling everybody โfugazi.โ
Donna Kelce: Thatโs right, Americaโs football mom is her
The Game Remains the Same. The Drama? Dialed Up.
For the uninitiated (welcome to the madness), The Traitors is basically Clue meets Mafia meets RuPaulโs Drag Race Untucked, all set in a misty Scottish murder mansion. Players are either Faithfuls or Traitors, and the latter are trying to sabotage, deceive, and murder their way to the bag.
If the Faithfuls sniff them out and get rid of the snakes? They split the prize. If even one Traitor makes it to the end? Say goodbye to your cut, babe.
This cast is pure reality TV gold. Get ready for shady alliances, backstabbing, wine-fueled drama, and maybe even a Housewives showdownโall under Alan Cummingโs watchful eye (and iconic cape).
The Traitors returns in early 2026 on Peacock. Donโt miss it.
