A new season of The Traitors US comes to Peacock this winter. A group of reality TV stars and additional celebrities will compete for part of the $250,000 prize.

Peacock previously revealed the names of 21 players, but familiar twists await the fans.

Last season on The Traitors, a Below Deck star joined the cast after someone quit, and a Big Brother winner popped up to lead them through a challenge.

Kate Chastain from Below Deck and the first season of The Traitors arrived at the Scotland castle mid-way through Season 2. She was a late arrival who was allowed to join the game after boxer Deontay Wilder quit.

Later, Big Brother 2 winner Dr. Will Kirby surfaced as someone staying at the cabin in the woods. That cabin is where creepy challenges happen with bugs or darkness. He didn’t play the game but was part of the advertising.

The Traitors Season...

It was during the second season that peacock gave us the exciting news about The Traitors season 3. Yes, it would happen, and now we know when!

The wait for The Traitors seems like a long one. The truth is, it’s not actually that long. The show will premiere its third season almost a year after the premiere of season 2. We can’t really complain about that, as the show did need to film first!

The Traitors season 3 premiere date confirmed

Peacock has confirmed that The Traitors season 3 will premiere on Thursday, Jan. 9. Yes, that’s in 2025. It gives us a thrilling and juicy start to the new year, right? Alan Cumming revealed the date on The Today Show.

As with the previous two seasons, the episodes will release on a weekly basis. This is the best way to watch the show as it allows us to chat to friends...

Alan Cumming just revealed when The Traitors Season 3 arrives on Peacock. This gives fans something to look forward to this winter.

Cumming hosts the hit reality competition show based in Scotland, bringing an energetic and fashionable flair to his job.

The show revolves around three Traitors trying to steal a cash pot from the rest of the players. It’s an intense show with plenty of backstabbing.

The backstabbing makes The Traitors a great fit for people from reality TV, and the producers have leaned hard into that genre.

We get to enjoy 21 celebrities playing the game this winter, with most of them from reality TV.

There is also a WWE wrestler (Nikki Garcia) and the ex of singer Britney Spears (Sam Asghari).

When is The Traitors Season 3 start date?

Alan Cumming announced that the first episode of The Traitors 3 will drop on Thursday, January 9.

He stopped by The Today Show...

Peacock has announced the premiere date for The Traitors Season 3, which will feature a new lineup of familiar faces and is hosted again by the impossibly stylish and devastatingly witty Alan Cumming.

The Traitors Season 3 will premiere on January 9 and consists of 11 episodes plus a reunion episode.

Produced by Studio Lambert and set in a remote castle deep in the Scottish Highlands, five-time Emmy-nominated Alan Cumming plays host to 21 larger-than-life personalities who come together to compete in a series of missions with the objective of earning a cash prize of up to $250,000.

The catch? Hidden amongst the Faithful contestants are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves. Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors “murder” contestants one by one, but if the Faithful can banish all the Traitors before the end of the game, they’ll split the incredible prize.

The Traitors...

What is this show, you may ask? Well, you may have been living under a rock for the last two seasons of the show, and we know how that goes. Life gets in the way.

The Traitors is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game.

A new season of The Traitors US arrives this winter on Peacock. The hit reality competition show is back for another go.

The Traitors 3 cast has completed filming and the episodes are ready to air. It leaves fans with questions about when the season will premiere.

A new group of reality TV stars got invited to Scotland to film the latest season. And there are some very intriguing players.

Wells Adams from The Bachelorette, Dolores Catania from The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and Jeremy Collins from Survivor are just a few of the names.

Additional names from The Traitors 3 cast include Gabby Windey from The Bachelor, Tom Sandoval from Vanderpump Rules, and Britney Haynes from Big Brother.

A $250,000 prize was on the line, and host Alan Cumming invited them to compete at Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands.

When could The Traitors 3 arrive on Peacock?

An official announcement has...

Luca Guadagnino and Lionsgate announced that the “Call Me by Your Name” and “Queer” director is in final discussions to film a new version of Bret Eason Ellis’ dark horror novel “American Psycho,” nearly 25 years after the same company released Mary Harron’s satirical adaptation. In a key role that elevated his career, the 2000 film starred Christian Bale as yuppie investment banker-turned-serial killer Patrick Bateman.

It’s the kind of announcement destined to raise eyebrows. Guadagnino is in a career sweet spot after “Challengers” and “Queer” this year (and “After the Hunt” in post); he already has many projects in the works, including “Separate Rooms” with Josh O’Connor and a Thomas Mann adaptation in early development. So why is he choosing a remake — and for a film that doesn’t seem that long ago?

New versions of older films are not unusual. Even the word “remake” is tricky here — does that apply with adaptations?...

Ozzy Osbourne’s complete solo discography will be collected on an 18-lp box set titled See You on the Other Side V2.0, set to arrive on March 14th, 2025. The release updates a 2019 box set with Ozzy’s two most recent albums, 2020’s Ordinary Man and 2022’s Patient Number 9, as well as additional goodies.

See You on the Other Side V2.0 comes at a steep price of $599.99, but it is limited to 2,000 copies, with each signed by the Prince of Darkness himself. It is available for pre-order from Ozzy’s official merch store.

In addition to all of his studio LPs, live albums, and rarities on vinyl, the box set includes 10 brand-new full-size posters of vintage photos, a gold bat vinyl slipmat, and an individually numbered vellum certificate of authenticity personally signed by Ozzy.

The announcement of the box set is accompanied by a hilarious commercial starring Osbourne’s guitarist Zakk Wylde.

Kyle Richards, a well-known name in reality TV, has built a lasting career in the spotlight. She started as a child actress, appearing in famous films like Halloween and shows like Little House on the Prairie. However, her real breakthrough came when she joined The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in 2010. By 2024, she’s the only original cast member still on the show, making her a key figure in its history.

She’s more than just a TV star; she’s also a smart businesswoman with ventures in fashion, real estate, and charity work. From navigating on-screen drama to building her own brand, Richards has managed to stay relevant in a world where fame often fades quickly. Let’s take a closer look at her life as well as an impressive net worth.

Sony had been planning to give director Chris Weitz’s horror film They Listen a theatrical release on August 25th of 2023, but in May of last year they decided to delay the release an entire year, pushing They Listen to August 30, 2024. By the time that date rolled around, the movie had been given the new title Afraid (or AfrAId)… and neither the new title nor the new release date worked out for the movie at the box office, because it only ended up making $9 million at the global box office. Just two weeks after its theatrical release, Afraid has now been given a digital release and is available for rent on Amazon’s Prime Video for $9.99. It can also be purchased for the price of $14.99.

Afraid‘s physical media release will follow on November 5th, when it comes to Blu-ray and DVD with the following extras: – 5 Deleted & Extended Scenes including...

Peacock has renewed its Emmy Award-winning competition-reality series The Traitors for a fourth and fifth season. The hit series brings together the dramatic stylings of fashion icon Alan Cumming with the deceit and treachery of a celeb-fueled competition set in the Scottish Highlands.

The second season of The Traitors was nominated for four Emmys, including Outstanding Reality Competition Program, Outstanding Directing for a Reality Series, Outstanding Cinematography for a Reality Series, and Alan Cumming was nominated on behalf of the show for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program.

Season 2 also received four Critics Choice Real TV Awards for Best Competition Series, Best Ensemble Cast in an Unscripted Series, and Alan Cumming was awarded Best Show Host and Male Star of the Year on behalf of the show. It also received Outstanding Achievement in Reality at the TCA Awards.

Last season (Season 2), The Traitors became the #1 unscripted series in the U.

In February, Ye (the former Kanye West) shocked the music industry when Vultures I, the first of a planned trilogy with Ty Dolla $ign as Y$, opened at Number One on the Billboard 200 chart. It was only a year ago when Ye’s rank antisemitism and adoration of white supremacists prompted an exodus of corporate supporters. Then, with Vultures I, he joined a wave of “canceled” men reestablishing ties with polite society. Critics stung by his unrelenting anti-Black stunts grudgingly admitted that Vultures was impressively produced. “Kids love Kanye,” declared...

The Traitors is currently filming its Season 3, which means that the new season should be arriving sooner rather than later. The new season played things a little differently this season by actually releasing the cast early so fans know who is coming on the show and who they will be able to cheer for, and root against.

Here is what we know about when the new season might arrive.

The Traitors Season 3 Releases Cast Information

Host Alan Cumming officially announced The Traitors Season 3 cast in a video released on YouTube. In the video, Cumming was dressed in a yellow and black checkered suit and read down the list of who was coming onto the show to compete in the new season.

There were some leaks and teases to the cast before, but this time, Cumming made it all official.

First up are four former Survivor contestants: Boston Rob Mariano,...

A new season of The Traitors arrives this winter on Peacock.

In a format change, the producers and host of The Traitors revealed the new cast very early.

Rather than waiting until the season was close to debuting, Peacock announced the cast of The Traitors 3 as filming was beginning.

This has helped create additional buzz for the hit reality competition show, but it will make the delay in new episodes seem even longer.

Filming for The Traitors 3 has already been completed, but the episodes need to be edited before they are ready for the public.

And if the recent trend continues, fans will wait months before the new episodes arrive.

When will The Traitors 3 stream on television?

To predict the future, we must look at the past.

The Traitors is a winter show for Peacock, with the streaming service giving viewers something extra to watch during the colder months.

Afraid Trailer(Photo Credit –YouTube)

We know how technology can be frightening sometimes, as depicted in the Black Mirror series on Netflix. Numerous other movies and shows have also showcased the dark side of technology. With the rise of AI usage, the potential for fear grows even more intense. This fear is precisely what is captured in the newly released Afraid Trailer. The film stars John Cho, Katherine Waterston, Havara Rose Liu, Lukita Maxwell, David Dastmalchian, and Keith Carradine.

In the Afraid trailer, Curtis brings home a new device called ‘Aia’, a digital assistant designed to help people, especially families, with everything from groceries to looking after the kids. While Aia sounds intriguing and helpful, the trailer hints at the terrifying consequences of an AI that goes to extreme lengths to assist its users.

The trailer shows Curtis and his family experiencing the dark side of Aia’s constant vigilance.

John Cho (Searching) and Katherine Waterston (Alien: Covenant) find themselves Afraid, formerly titled They Listen, in the brand new trailer for the upcoming horror movie from Sony, Blumhouse, and Depth of Field.

Afraid releases in theaters on August 30.

In the film, “Curtis (Cho) and his family are selected to test a revolutionary new home device: a digital family assistant called Aia. Taking smart home to the next level, once the unit and all its sensors and cameras are installed in their home, Aia seems able to do it all. She learns the family’s behaviors and begins to anticipate their needs. And she can make sure nothing — and no one — gets in her family’s way.”

If the trailer isn’t enough, you can meet Aia now over on her website.

Afraid is written and directed by Chris Weitz (About a Boy).

Havana Rose Liu, Lukita Maxwell, David Dastmalchian and Keith Carradine also star.

Sony had been planning to give director Chris Weitz’s horror film They Listen a theatrical release on August 25th of 2023, but in May of last year they decided to delay the release an entire year, pushing They Listen to August 30, 2024. With that date swiftly approaching, we knew the marketing for the film had to start any time now… and as it turns out, it has started today. They Listen has been retitled Afraid, and a trailer for the film can be seen in the embed above.

Afraid is coming to us from Sony, Blumhouse, and Depth of Field. Weitz is producing the film with Jason Blum and Andrew Miano. Bea Sequeira, Dan Balgoyen, Britta Rowings, and Paul Davis serve as executive producers. Filming took place in Los Angeles back in December of 2022.

Along the with release of the trailer comes, finally, some information on what this movie is actually about.

Zac Efron skyrocketed to fame in 2006 with his role as Troy Bolton in High School Musical, capturing the hearts of teenagers around the globe. Following his breakout role, Efron starred in a string of popular films, including 17 Again, New Year’s Eve, The Lucky One, The Paperboy, The Greatest Showman, Baywatch, and many more.

However, 2013 proved to be a particularly challenging year for the actor. Struggling with addiction to alcohol and drugs, Efron made the difficult decision to enter rehab. In 2014, he bravely opened up about his battle with addiction, shedding light on the pressures and struggles he faced behind the scenes. His candid revelation highlighted his personal challenges and his determination to overcome them and continue his career in Hollywood.

Chris Rock headlines the voice cast of animated sequel Everybody Still Hates Chris, and here are the details.

Chris Rock attained superstardom following his second HBO stand-up special Bring The Pain in 1996. Hollywood beckoned, and he took supporting roles in the likes of Lethal Weapon 4 and Nurse Betty, as well as writing and directing feature films Down To Earth and Head Of State. After the much publicized incident at the Oscars two years ago, Rock released Netflix special Selective Outrage and co-starred in civil rights drama Rustin.

In 2005, autobiographical sitcom Everybody Hates Chris premiered on television. Broadcast on Channel 5 in the UK, the show portrays a semi-fictionalized version of Rock’s childhood.

Host Alan Cumming recently revealed The Traitors 3 cast, and it features someone very close to Zac.

Dylan Efron (Zac’s brother) traveled to Scotland to play on the third season of the hit reality competition show.

The show has people from reality TV stay in a Scottish castle and compete for part of a $250,000 prize.

Dylan has appeared on Down to Earth with Zac Efron, a documentary-type show currently streaming on Netflix.

Down to Earth also features wellness expert Darin Olien and has the guys traveling the world searching for healthy, sustainable ways to live.

But lurking in the group of “Faithful” players are “Traitors.” Their mission is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves.

The new players in Scotland include people from Big Brother, Survivor, The Real Housewives, Selling Sunset, The Bachelorette, RuPaul’s Drag Race, and Vanderpump Rules.

Glen Powell has been attached to star in Paramount’s reimagining of Heaven Can Wait. More on the project below.

Glen Powell truly is the man of the moment. He’s only just coming off the unexpected success of Sony’s Anyone But You and about to headline the summer’s windiest blockbuster Twisters, but he’s now eyeing up a body-switch comedy.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that Powell will star in Paramount’s reimagining of Heaven Can Wait, based on Harry Segall’s play of the same name. The play was most famously adapted in 1978 and starred Warren Beatty as an NFL football player who suffers an unfortunate, untimely death but returns to Earth in the body of a recently murdered millionaire.

Warren Beatty also directed the film, which received nine Oscar nominations, winning Best Art Direction as it was called at the time. Segall’s play has also...

Just when you thought Glen Powell couldn't be more booked and busy, along comes word that he's adding another potential project to his To Do list. He's now attached to star in a new version of Heaven Can Wait for Paramount.

As originally reported by Puck's What I'm Hearing… newsletter and since confirmed by the likes of The Hollywood Reporter, Powell will play a man who dies prematurely due to an antsy angel and returns to Earth in the body of a recently murdered millionaire.

Stephen Gaghan, who wrote Traffic and wrote/directed Syriana, is on board to script this one.

Originally a 1938 play by Harry Segall, Heaven Can Wait was first turned into a 1941 film by Alexander Hall called Here Comes Mr. Jordan. That outing featured a boxer given a second chance. More famously, it has since crossed the paths of Warren Beatty and Chris Rock, who brought us 2001 comedy Down To Earth,...

Chalk up another project for Glen Powell. Recently, the Hit Man star was announced to be in talks for the new unknown J.J. Abrams project. He was also announced to star in the thriller Huntington, which puts him alongside Margaret Qualley and Ed Harris, as well as joining Anthony Mackie and Laura Dern for the legal drama titled Monsanto. The Hollywood Reporter has now revealed that Powell is now set to star in a reimagining of Warren Beatty’s Heaven Can Wait for Paramount.

The 1978 Warren Beatty film was based on Harry Segall’s play of the same name and garnered nominations for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture; however, the movie would only post a win for Best Art Direction. In the original,...

A remake of Heaven Can Wait is in early development at Paramount with Glen Powell, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

Stephen Gaghan, an Oscar winner for his script for Steven Soderbergh’s 2000 crime film Traffic, is writing the project for Powell to star. Based on Harry Segall’s play of the same name, the original 1978 movie Heaven Can Wait starred Warren Beatty and was nominated for nine Oscars including best picture, with the film notching a win for best art direction.

Heaven Can Wait centered on Beatty as an NFL quarterback who dies prematurely due to an antsy angel and returns to Earth in the body of a recently murdered millionaire. Beatty directed the film with Buck Henry and co-wrote the script with Elaine May.

Segall’s play Heaven Can Wait had previously been adapted for the 1941 feature Here Comes Mr. Jordan, with the lead character being a boxer, and...

There’s a change in Tuesday primetime programming on The CW. The network has pulled travelogue series Down To Earth with Zac Efron and Fantastic Friends after just two episodes. Both series premiered on July 18. Remaining episodes will be available on the CW app and cwtv.com.

The CW will air reruns of Penn & Teller: Fool Us (8-9 pm) and Whose Line Is It Anyway? (9-10 pm) in their place.

Down To Earth and Fantastic Friends are the latest acquired series to be pulled from the CW schedule, following the Australian surfing drama Barons, which was pulled after four episodes in June.

Down To Earth with Zac Efron, acquired from Netflix, experienced a 24% drop in viewers from the first episode to episode 2, and Fantastic Friends had low viewership from the start, dropping from 161K viewers in episode 1 to 158K in episode 2. Seasons 1 and 2 of Down To Earth are still streaming on Netflix.

The CW is adding racing to its roster of sports programming.

The network will become the exclusive home to the NASCAR Xfinity Series beginning in 2025 and extending through the 2031 racing season. The CW will broadcast 33 live NASCAR Xfinity Series races annually, along with practice and qualifying events each weekend.

The CW cut two of its most recent series from broadcast after only airing two episodes of each: “Down to Earth with Zac Efron” and James and Oliver Phelps’ “Fantastic Friends,” TheWrap has confirmed.

Originally, the two shows were supposed to debut on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. throughout the summer. They have since been replaced by encore episodes of “Penn and Teller: Fool Us” and back-to-back episodes of “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” Remaining episodes of both series are available to stream on the CW app and on cwtv.com.

Neither of the series emerged as big ratings wins for The CW. During its brief time on the air, “Down to Earth” averaged 0.269 million views and earned a 0.04 in the 18 to 49 demo, putting it behind summer series such as “The Chosen,” “Nancy Drew,” “Riverdale” and “Son of a Critch.” “Fantastic Friends” performed even worse, only seeing an average...

Exclusive: Ryan Reynolds and his company, Maximum Effort, have joined Nacelle’s Biker Mice from Mars animated series, a new iteration of the cult classic series. Nacelle plans to co-produce with Maximum Effort and Fubo.

“Some people know that I am a motorcycle enthusiast, so it was only natural for us to jump on board Biker Mice from Mars,” said Reynolds. “Maximum Effort and Fubo look forward to putting a new spin on this cult classic with our friends at Nacelle.”

The Biker Mice From Mars story: on the planet Mars, there existed a race of anthropomorphic mice who enjoyed motorsports and had a very similar culture and society to that of human beings. Eventually, they were all but wiped out by the Plutarkians, an alien race of obese, foul-smelling, worm-eating, fish-like humanoids who plunder other planets for their natural resources.
