Fans Traitors I was shocked on Thursday January 9th when… The first three episodes Season 3 of the show has been released and two unexpected players have dropped in – literally.
The announced cast, which Peacock shared last June, arrived on their second mission to find three new players hanging above them in cages. He was one Rob “Boston Rob” Marianowho chose not to be invited to the game during the first episode.
The other two were completely unexpected reality TV giants: a three-time winner Challenge, Wes Bergmanand Big Brother 16 winner Derek Levasseur.
Those who got to know Wes and Derek, both 40, reacted with the expected mix of excitement and fear at the two masterminds being unleashed on the game, while others clearly had no idea what either of them was capable of.
Both new players will start out as Saviors, while Boston Rob will try to get revenge on those who didn't invite him into the game by joining the Traitors' side.
