The Traitors has rounded up another batch of duplicitous reality TV all-stars for its second season. In Peacock’s competition series, contestants duke it out for a chance at a $250,000 prize. The twist? One group – the Faithful – is playing by the rules. Meanwhile, the other contestants – the Traitors – are coming up with ways to sabotage their opponents and steal the prize.

Once again, actor Alan Cumming will serve as host for The Traitors. This time around, he’ll be joined by his trusty sidekick, his dog Lala. 

Once the contestants arrive at the ancient castle in the Scottish Highlands, they’ll have to work together on a series of missions that will allow them to build up a prize fund worth as much as $250,000. But lurking among them are The Traitors, whose mission is to sabotage the other players and claim the prize for themselves. Under the cover of darkness, they’ll murder the Faithful, who will have to fight to discover who the Traitors are and then banish them from the game. If the Faithful succeed in eliminating all the Traitors, they’ll share the prize fund. But if even a single Traitor makes it to the end of the competition, they’ll claim all the prize money. 

The Traitors Season 2 will have 11, hour-long episodes, plus a reunion special. Production is currently underway in Scotland. A premiere date has not been announced.
