Survivor has revealed its 18 new castaways who will compete on the upcoming 49th season of the CBS Emmy-winning reality series, the final edition before the landmark 50th season next spring. Season 49 will premiere with a two-hour episode on Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 9 PM on CBS and streaming on Paramount+. The series shifts to 90-minute weekly episodes beginning Wednesday, Oct. 1 at 8 PM.
This season’s castaways include former Marvel executive Nate Moore, along with a political communications director, fitness trainer, clinical social worker, musician, a financial crime consultant and a correctional officer, among others.
Two of Season 49’s castaways will return for the 50th season in May. When the cast was recently announced, CBS kept two names secret from Season 49, and they will return for the 50th. Their identities will be revealed at a later date.
Hosted by five-time Emmy winner Jeff Probst, Survivor is currently nominated for four Primetime Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Host and Reality Competition Program. The series also powers ahead with strong ratings, having finished the 2024-25 television season as the No. 1 entertainment series among adults 18-49 and adults 25-54.
Have a look at the 18 castaways who will compete in Season 49 for the title of Sole Survivor and the $1 million prize.
