The tribe has spoken and the cast for Season 50 of “Survivor” has been set.
Host Jeff Probst revealed the names of the 24 returning contestants who will be part of the landmark new season. Among them is Emmy-winning “White Lotus” creator and “Survivor” alum, Mike White.
“I was there the night of the finale of Mike’s season, and I thought he was going to win the game, and I felt like he sabotaged it a little bit,” Probst told “CBS Mornings” on Wednesday. “This is the guy that writes and directs ‘White Lotus,’ which studies human behavior in the most fascinating way. He gets ‘Survivor.’”
White has said that while many in Hollywood harbor the dream of winning Oscars, his lifelong dream was to be on “Survivor,” a show he said he was a superfan of.
The contestants joining White to outwit, outplay and outlast each other on the famed reality competition series hail from 19 different seasons, including two from the upcoming Season 49, which premieres this fall. Probst said the Season 50 cast includes heroes, villains and fan-favorites.
“That’s why we put this group together, it’s every flavor, every era, every type of personality, and then when you let the fans be in charge of all of the creative, all of the game design, it really is up in the air for the first time since Season 1,” Probst said.
