The Traitors Season 6 Cast: Every Confirmed Player, and What Peacock Has Announced

Peacock’s current official cast announcement identifies the next celebrity installment of The Traitors as Season 6, not Season 5. It is planned for early 2027, though Peacock has not announced an exact premiere date.

The confirmed cast

The Season 6 lineup includes: Kristin Chenoweth, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Whitney Leavitt, RuPaul’s Drag Race star Bianca Del Rio, creator Boman Martinez-Reid, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Bronwyn Newport, Happy Endings’ Casey Wilson, Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim, Australian pop star Cody Simpson, Southern Charm’s Craig Conover, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Cynthia Bailey, Lost’s Dominic Monaghan, Next Gen NYC’s Emira D’Spain, The Real Housewives of Potomac’s Gizelle Bryant, Love Island narrator Iain Stirling, Big Brother’s Jag Bains, Love Island USA’s JaNa Craig, The Bachelor’s Joey Graziadei, Queer As Folk’s Johnny Sibilly, Survivor’s Michele Fitzgerald and Q Burdette, The Challenge’s Rachel Robinson, former NFL player Rashad Jennings, and The Amazing Race’s Taylor Hale.

Why Peacock is leaning into this now

The cast reveal follows Peacock’s expansion of the Studio Lambert-produced format. The series has been renewed through Season 8, while host Alan Cumming has a new deal; NBC also launched The Traitors: New Blood, a civilian version of the format. Those moves explain the bigger franchise picture, but they do not establish any casting or gameplay details beyond the announced Season 6 lineup.

How the game actually works

The Traitors is based on the Dutch format De Verraders. Cumming selects a subset of players to be Traitors at the season’s start; the Traitors secretly eliminate Faithful players one by one while trying to stay undetected, and the Faithful attempt to identify and vote out the Traitors at roundtable gatherings. If any Traitors remain at the end, they split the prize money among themselves; if none remain, the Faithful split it instead. The series is executive produced by Cumming, Stephen Lambert, Mike Cotton, Sam Rees-Jones, Rosie Franks, Tim Harcourt, Jack Burgess and Darrell Olsen.

What’s still unknown

Peacock hasn’t set an exact premiere date beyond early 2027, and character/role assignments — who’s a Traitor and who’s Faithful — are determined during filming and aren’t something a cast announcement would reveal. Treat any premiere-date guesses beyond that window as speculation until Peacock confirms a date.
