Survivor 48 may have just wrapped, but fans are already buzzing about what’s next. Yep, we’re talking about Survivor Season 49 Cast. Viewers are curious—who’s in the next cast, where will it be filmed, and most importantly, when does it come out?
If you’ve been wondering the same things, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with everything we know so far.
So… Who’s in the Cast of Survivor Season 49?
Here’s the thing—CBS hasn’t dropped the official cast list for Season 49 yet. It’s still under wraps. But that doesn’t mean we’re totally in the dark.
We do know Jeff Probst is coming back as host (would it even be Survivor without him?). He’s been running the show since day one, and his return means that same high-energy vibe fans love is sticking around.
There were some wild rumors floating online about Dierks Bentley—yep, the country singer—possibly being on the show. But Jeff put that to rest in an interview. They did talk to him, and Dierks said he might be interested “someday”, but not this season.
In another interview with Entertainment Weekly, Probst described the upcoming cast as a “quirky and super likable bunch.” He also hinted that they’ll be dealing with some pretty wild weather. Imagine a Fijian summer so hot it feels like the jungle is literally breathing down your neck. Sounds brutal, right?
Where Is Survivor Season 49 Being Filmed?
Just like recent seasons, Survivor 49 is taking place in the beautiful Mamanuca Islands of Fiji.
If you’ve been watching the last few seasons, this probably doesn’t surprise you. The location is stunning—clear blue water, white sand, dense jungle—but it’s also no picnic for the players. The heat, bugs, and rough living conditions are no joke.
Fun fact: The Mamanuca Islands are actually one of Fiji’s top tourist spots. But instead of relaxing in a beach resort, castaways will be building shelters from scratch and trying to make fire. Paradise with a twist, huh?
When Will Survivor 49 Come Out?
Now for the big question: When does Survivor 49 air?
CBS hasn’t given us an exact date just yet. But if they dont change to their usual schedule, the show should be on-air in the second half of 2025, probably around September or October.
Traditionally, Survivor airs two seasons per year—one in spring, one in fall—so if that pattern remains same, fall 2025 seems like a safe bet.
Until then, we’ll be keeping our eyes sticked for a trailer, cast reveal, or any sneak peeks that come our way.
Final Thoughts
There’s still a lot we don’t know about Survivor 49, but one thing’s for sure—it’s coming, and it’s going to be wild. Whether you’re a day-one fan or just hopping, this season promises something fresh, fun, and full of surprises.
We’ve got a brand-new group of players headed to Fiji, a blazing hot jungle setting, and Jeff Probst back in action. All the ingredients are there for another unforgettable season.
So stay tuned, keep your torches lit, and get ready to outwit, outplay, and outlast—again.
