“The Traitors” Season 2 (which premieres January 12 on Peacock) will be a who’s-who of reality TV super-stardom, with “Survivor” winners Sandra Diaz-Twine and Parvati Shallow and “Big Brother” champion Dan Gheesling among the roster of 21 contestants. While the list of participants was revealed back in September, the cast photos were kept under wraps … until now. Scroll through our gallery above (or click here for direct access) to meet “The Traitors” Season 2 cast. Who is YOUR early favorite to win it all?

Just like the first season, the new installment will take place in the Scottish Highlands with Alan Cumming back as the impeccably dressed host. And this time around, he’ll have a cute sidekick in the form of his dog Lala. The players will be randomly divided into villainous Traitors (those who lie, cheat and steal) and heroic Faithfuls (those who try to uncover the truth). The ultimate winner will take home a cash prize of up to $250,000.

Alan Cumming is the host and producer of “The Traitors” on Peacock. “They asked me, who was not an obvious choice, and I got to sort of develop this new character,” he told Gold Derby about his on-screen persona. “Although I’m hosting a reality show, I feel like I’m definitely acting a character.”
