Netflix hasn’t shared many details about the Love Is Blind cast beyond their ages and occupations. And because people who don’t couple up in the pods get little to no screen time, some will continue to remain mostly anonymous. But a “Meet the Cast” teaser from Netflix (via YouTube) offers some intriguing hints about who could stir up drama in season 5. 

“I’m still single because I have a mouth on me,” Maris admits. “And I don’t apologize about it.” 

“I think I’m always right,” Efrain confesses. “And the majority of the time I usually am.”

Netflix is promising that the latest installment of Love Is Blind is “the most shocking” yet. We’ll have to wait and see, but a teaser hints at plenty of drama, from wedding day tears to manipulative singles to skeptical family members

“She planned for us to both be here because she couldn’t let me go,” one guy says in the season 5 trailer (via YouTube). 

“Love is blind, I get that,” a man who looks to be someone’s dad says. “But sometimes, love wants to fly first class.”
