Peacock today announced the premiere date and contestants for its nail-biting, psychological reality competition series The Traitors, hosted by the deliciously-witty Alan Cumming.
All 10 episodes will drop exclusively on Peacock on January 12, 2023. You can scroll down to view all the contestants!
Set in a remote castle in the Scottish Highlands and based on the wildly popular Dutch series of the same name, five-time Emmy-nominated Alan Cumming plays host to twenty larger-than-life personalities who come together to complete a series of challenges with the objective of earning a cash prize of up to $250,000.
The catch? Three of the contestants coined “the traitors” will devise a plan to steal the prize from the other contestants coined “the faithful.”
“Studio Lambert has truly captured lightning in a bottle with our latest competition series The Traitors,” said Corie Henson, EVP Entertainment Unscripted Content, NBCUniversal.
“We can’t wait for Peacock audiences to experience and play along in this epic game of manipulation and deceit, all while the iconic Alan Cumming pulls the strings of our incredible cast to create the ultimate ‘whodunit’.”
“In a game of secrecy, suspicion and plot twists in a Scottish castle, who better to take the helm and guide our game players through the drama and challenging missions than Alan who originally comes from Scotland,” added Studio Lambert CEO Stephen Lambert.
The Traitors is produced by Studio Lambert Scotland with Stephen Lambert, Mike Cotton, Toni Ireland, Jack Burgess and Sam Rees Jones serving as executive producers. Sharon Vuong, EVP Entertainment Unscripted Development will oversee for NBCUniversal.
