When will the Survivor: Island of the Idols cast be officially revealed?

Normally, Wednesday has been the day we’ve seen cast reveals for Survivor. When can we expect the Survivor: Island of the Idol cast reveal this time?

Ever since the introduction of theSurvivor: Blood vs. Watercast, every cast of an upcoming season have been revealed at least four weeks ahead of the premiere on a Wednesday. The starkest and only exception wasEdge of Extinction,with the cast reveal coming only less than three weeks before the premiere and also coming on a Thursday.

With theofficial social media accounts reminding usaboutSurvivor: Island of the Idolspremiering a month away from August 25 on September 25, we had hoped that we would get the official cast reveal today, Wednesday, August 28. However, we did not get the standard four-week head’s up, meaning we have to wonder; when will the cast be revealed in an official capacity?

We have several options, so let’s go with recent history. Last season, when the EoE cast was revealed late,I compiled the release dates for all the past seasons dating back toGabon. Wednesday is the most popular date, with Monday being second and Thursday (with EoE) being third. Friday seems out of the question.

There is a case for Thursday being the best bet that has pros and cons going for it.Dalton Ross tweeted earlier todaythat he has written 10,000 and 14,000-word stories earlier this year, and has even more words prepared for tomorrow morning. Pinned to the top of his Twitter is the 14k-word oral history of the Erik Reichenbach, suggesting the next story is aboutSurvivor. Also,Edge of Extinction’scast was revealed on a Thursday.

Traditionally, though, I wouldn’t expect aSurvivor: Island of the Idolscast reveal to have so many words written by him, as they often focus on the bios written by the players. Additionally, Dalton Ross is situated in New York City if past post-show live streams are to be believed, and most cast reveals have come at 12 p.m. ET. The afternoon is not the morning, so it could be a supplementarySurvivorpiece as we approach the 20th anniversary of the show.

Still, the other 10,000-word piece from Dalton gave us a behind-the-scenes look of theEdge of Extinctionmarooning the day of the premiere, so who knows? It could be tomorrow, it could be next Wednesday, maybe even next Thursday. Either way, theSurvivoroffseason (for non-Australian fans) is rapidly coming to a close!
