The Traitors, a new reality competition series from Peacock, has revealed its cast and release date. The first episode of Alan Cumming’s ten-part chat show will air on January 12, 2023. Click through the images above to learn more about the contestants, who include personalities from shows like The Real Housewives and Big Brother.
This British adaptation of the Dutch show of the same name will feature celebrities and regular people working together to complete a series of challenges in a remote Scottish castle for a prize of up to $250,000. Here’s the catch, though: It is expected that three participants, dubbed “the traitors,” will scheme to steal the reward from the remaining competitors, dubbed “the faithful.”
What is ‘The Traitors’ About?
Alan Cumming’s The Traitors is an updated take on the standard reality program structure. The show’s success in the Netherlands inspired the producers to adapt it for an Australian audience. Although the trailer above is not for the American adaptation of the show, it does an excellent job of summing up the show’s central concept and aesthetic.
A group of contestants from throughout the United States will assemble at a Scottish castle to take part in a series of challenges.
However, there is a “Traitor” trio inside their ranks. Contestants are tasked with betraying their teammates for a $250,000 payout in a covert operation. After the Faithful have found and eliminated the Traitors from the competition, the remaining competitors will win the reward and split it among themselves. However, if even a single Traitor remains behind, they will be able to simply steal all of the cash.
Even if the Traitors intend to “kill” each of their opponents in turn, the series of challenges will expand the reward pool and shield the participants from harm. Squad members who the Faithful deem to be Traitors can be kicked off the team.
When Can We Expect the Premiere of ‘The Traitors’?
The actors will fight for the big prize when all 10 episodes of Traitors are released on January 12, 2023. In order to fight for a total of $250,000 in cash, contestants will gather at a fortress deep in the Scottish Highlands and take part in a series of challenges.
But there’s a catch with these reality competition series, just like there was with Netflix’s The Mole. The show’s creators have selected three “snitch” contestants in advance, and it is their mission to defraud the other contestants.
Described as a “psychological adventure” in which treachery and deceit play important roles, The Traitors promises to be a thrilling read. This “game full to the brim” features “alliances, duplicity, and even murder.”‘
