The White Lotus creator Mike White won’t be the only Survivor contestant with a Hollywood connection in the 2025-26 season.
Former Marvel executive Nate Moore will take part in the 49th edition of the show, which is set to premiere in September. He’ll be one of 18 players vying for a million-dollar prize; two players will also be part of the landmark 50th season in the spring of 2026. That season will feature White as part of an all-star group of players from Survivor’s 25-year history.
The 47-year-old Moore, a 14-year Marvel veteran, left the studio earlier this year to become an independent producer. During his time at the studio, he was a producer on the two Black Panther films (and championed the character throughout the movies’ development), The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Captain America: Brave New World, among others. Prior to joining Marvel in 2010, he was among the founding employees of Participant Media.
