Meet the Full Cast of 'The Challenge: USA' Season 2

Last year, CBS kicked off The Challenge: USA, bringing together competitors from various reality shows on the network to compete on the stalwart reality series on MTV. This summer, the lines are blurring even further, as the series is back for another season, and this time bringing in some of the biggest names in Challenge history.

The 24 competitors on The Challenge: USA season 2 once again include alumni from Survivor, Big Brother, and The Amazing Race. A few are even making return appearances on The Challenge: USA after playing in the first season last year. But, after specifically casting alums who had no appearances on The Challenge before, this season brings in a whopping eleven contestants who have graced our screens on MTV. Some made their start on a CBS show before making their way to cable. Others began their reality TV careers on MTV, turning into the outright faces of the decade-spanning show.

No matter what network they come from, the name of the game is the same. Compete in grueling physical challenges, maneuver through a cutthroat political game, and survive in intense one-on-one eliminations. From what the cast photo tells us, the cast is divided up into three teams of eight from the beginning. But in the end, only one man and one woman will split the grand prize of $500,000 from host T.J. Lavin.

Launch the gallery to find out the 24 players competing. The Challenge: USA season 2 premieres with a two-part premiere airing Thursday, August 10 from 10:00-11:00 and Sunday, August 13 from 9:00-10:00. After that, it will air two days a week until August 31, where then it will scale back to only Thursdays.
