The two-minute clip of the new season (which premieres Wednesday, Sept. 18 at 8/7c on CBS) provides a sneak peek into some the newbies’ strategies — including “Pod Save America” co-host Jon Lovett — as Probst sets the stage for the backstabbing and blindsides to come. He even goes so far as to compare the season to another beloved (albeit, fictional) series: HBO’s Game of Thrones. “The throne is never secure and the crown is always up for grabs,” he teases.
Also included in the cast are an ER doctor, a nurse, a pilot, a flight attendant and more, with Probst promising “big personalities with very clear agendas of how they want to play.”
