If you’re a true Traitors fan and can’t wait to delve into a web of conspiracies, there’s another exciting show lurking in the shadows.
According to Deadline, the BBC will launch a new version of the highest-rated program: The Traitors, but with celebrities.
The British edition of the show was one of the biggest television hits of recent years. The struggles of the contestants, who faced off in a Scottish castle, gained even more views than the reality classic The Masked Singer.
Two seasons of the British edition of The Traitors so far have featured “ordinary civilians.” However, the American version already mixed stars with members of the general public, while season 2 featured celebrities exclusively.
It looks like the BBC has decided to follow in Peacock’s footsteps and create a version with big names.
Here’s everything we know so far about a brand new installment of The Traitors.

When could The Traitors Celebrity be released?
The BBC and Studio Lambert are not providing information on the show at this time. However, according to leaks, Traitors with celebrities are set to appear in 2025, after the release of season 3 of The Traitors UK.
Who is the host of Traitors with the Stars?
You can rest easy because the iconic host of Traitors UK, Claudia Winklemanwould also direct the celebrity version of the show.
Who are the contestants on the celebrity version of The Traitors?
As of now, there is no confirmed list of participants in the program, but apparently the BBC and Studio Lambert are targeting the big names.
According to rumors, Courtney Cox would be one of the candidates. The actress appeared in a video posted by Claudia Winkleman announcing season 2 of The Traitors UK. For fans, this proves that Cox is a fan of the series and could appear in its celebrity version.
There is also speculation that the show could feature Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders and Mary Berry, who appeared in the Celebrity Traitors 2023 sketch for Comic Relief. The 2024 sketch also featured characters like Suranne Jones, David Walliams and Catherine Tate – so they are all potential players as well.
What will The Traitors talk about with celebrities?
The formula of the series will probably be similar to the version with “civilians”.
The celebrities will be holed up in a castle in the Scottish Highlands and compete for a cash prize. However, a few “traitors” will be hidden in the group – they will plot and “murder” the other participants. The “faithful” will therefore have to find out who the “traitors” are and eliminate them from the game.

The Celebrity Traitors will most likely be shown on BBC iPlayer. Both seasons of The Traitors UK are now available on the service.
