In the mind-blowing sneak peek shared exclusively with E! News, fans are treated to a glimpse of the jaw-dropping acts set to hit the stage and the reactions from host Terry Crews and judges Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel.
"Everything that you think there's no way to top it," Howie says at one point, "this season tops it."
From singing and dancing to balancing acts and fiery stunts, this new season seems to have it all. There's even one dangerous feat in which a contestant appears to swallow a giant pair of scissors and lift heavy objects with chains attached to the competitor's eyes (don't try this at home, kids) that causes Sofía to turn away.
"Sofía could not watch. How are you going to judge this?" Heidi asks, with the Modern Family star replying, "I don't know. It's horrific."
The trailer also teases high-flying performances, light spectaculars and show firsts—with Heidi sharing at one point, "We've never seen anything like this before." In fact, Howie notes one of the acts features "the youngest ever on that stage."
And let's just say the contestants are going for the gold—the golden buzzer, that is. Because this season, there are more golden buzzers than before—with Simon, Heidi, Sofía and Howie each getting two and Terry getting one for an overall total of nine.

Eric Lefkofsky knows the public listing rodeo well and is about to enter it for a fourth time. Groupon’s IPO and post-IPO years were infamously troubled, though the public listings of his other two companies — InnerWorkings in 2006 and Echo Global Logistics in 2009 — didn’t raise significant flags for investors and did well for Lefkofsky. InnerWorkings, a supply chain startup he founded in 2001, sold to private equity in 2021 for a fraction of its IPO market cap.
