CBS finally released the official Survivor 49 cast! We're still a few weeks away from the start of the season, and now, the official speculation of who wins Survivor 49 begins.
I say "official speculation" because the leaked Survivor 49 cast has been circulating for a long time online. It's hard to keep these secret in the information age, as they say.
When does Survivor 49 premiere?
Survivor 49 premieres at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. C on Wednesday, Sept. 24, on CBS and Paramount+!
The break between Survivor 48 and Survivor 49 has already felt like a brutally long time, so I'm happy that we're getting all these teases about the new season. Jeff Probst just dropped an epic tease of the new season in a new interview, and now, CBS is rolling out the full cast just a few days later. Let's keep the momentum going!
All 18 Survivor 49 players
Like every season of the new era, there are 18 players competing for the title of Sole Survivor and $1 million prize in Survivor 49. Of this cast, we don't know a lot about these players yet. Nate Moore, who has worked as a film producer for Marvel, is the most famous person on this cast. While I wouldn't say he's all that well-known, it could become a factor in the game.
Let's meet the new players!

Who are the Survivor 49 players on Survivor 50?
When the Survivor 50 cast was announced, only 22 of the 24 returning players were revealed. The two Survivor 49 players who were part of the Survivor 50 cast were not announced at that time. We still don't "officially" know which players are sticking around in Fiji for Survivor 50, but we obviously do know how those players are, and I'm going to share them now.
Spoilers ahead for Survivor 50!
According to reports, Rizo Velovic and Savannah Louie are the two Survivor 49 players who earned a spot in Survivor 50. We don't know how far they go in the game, although there are some theories that at least one of them goes pretty far in Survivor 49.
That's the Survivor 49 cast! We'll share more interesting insights, predictions, and more as we get to take a closer look at the cast and their pre-production intro videos!
Stay tuned for more news about Survivor 49! Watch the new season beginning on Wednesday, Sept. 24, on CBS and Paramount+.
