Us Weekly Envisions Season 3 Lineup for ‘The Defectors’: Potential Cast Includes Jonny Fairplay, Monica Garcia, and Others

We can't help but speculate on who might be joining Alan Cumming at his Scottish castle for season 3 of The Traitors. Peacock has decided to ditch the idea of having regular, non-famous people on the show, opening up endless possibilities. While season 1 featured ordinary individuals, season 2 has been filled with factions battling over which reality TV genre makes them the ultimate game player. Will Survivor and Big Brother veterans have an edge as seasoned "gamers," or will the Housewives' expertise in managing emotions give them the upper hand?

Fans can continue to indulge in debates about the skills showcased on reality shows for another season, thanks to the renewal of The Traitors by Peacock in February. This news came just as viewers were surprised by The Bachelor's Peter Weber's unexpectedly good gameplay. Executive producer Sam Rees-Jones revealed that the show is currently in the early stages of casting for season 3, giving them time to consider some suggestions.

Now, let's take a look at We's dream list of potential cast members for The Traitors season 3.

Martha Stewart

Alan came up with the brilliant idea, and Us had to agree. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight in February, Alan suggested Martha Stewart as a great choice. He said, "Wouldn’t she be fantastic? ‘Cause she’d be a fantastic traitor." And indeed, she would! With her amazing cocktail skills, she could easily deceive the faithful without them even realizing it.

Jonny Fairplay

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

Jonny is a popular choice for Survivor because he is known as the ultimate villain. However, if he were to betray his team, it would be too predictable. It might be more interesting if he remained loyal but caused chaos in other ways. Another classic Survivor villain, Richard Hatch, could also be a good choice. He just needs to make sure to pay his taxes if he wins.

Princess Kate Middleton

Could it be that Princess Kate Middleton has been away from the spotlight because she is working on a secret project like filming "The Traitors"? If not, she should consider it. Being part of the famously private royal family, she must be skilled at picking up on subtle cues.

Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino

Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino is a big fan of food and chaos, and both can be found in abundance on The Traitors. It's clear that he would feel right at home in Scotland!

Monica Garcia

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

Monica will not be returning to Bravo after causing significant conflict with her fellow Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Despite this, she would make a compelling reality TV subject due to her skillful deceit. This quality could make her a perfect fit for a show like The Traitors. It would be interesting to see her interact with other Bravo stars, all of whom have concrete evidence to back up their claims. Just picture the drama that could unfold if she tried to form alliances with personalities like Erika Jayne or Lala Kent! Let the entertainment begin on Peacock.

George Santos

George Santos, the former New York congressman, is currently facing 23 felony charges, including conspiracy to commit offenses against the United States. If convicted, he could potentially serve up to 22 years in federal prison. Despite his legal troubles, many people would agree that he deserves a break. Imagine how entertaining he would be on a trip to Scotland to film The Traitors while awaiting trial. Who knows, he might even surprise everyone with his skills in the bird call challenge!

Dennis Rodman

Former Chicago Bulls star, Dennis Rodman, shouldn't have any trouble on The Traitors. Unlike Deontay Wilder who had an early season 2 exit, Rodman is friends with Kim Jong Un, so dealing with any challenges on the show should be a breeze for him.

Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan were the initial pair on The Traitors, but they didn't last long. This was partly because they didn't appear ready to betray each other. On the other hand, Spencer and Heidi are experienced reality TV stars who would not hesitate to create drama for the show. Additionally, the castle could use some crystals for a more aesthetic touch.

Christine Quinn

Christine Quinn brought a unique spark to Selling Sunset that has been missed since she left the show. With her natural talent for reality television, she could play the role of a traitor or a faithful ally with ease. Her ability to charm and manipulate in a room full of skeptics was truly impressive. And let's not forget her iconic fashion sense that always turned heads!

T-Pain

T-Pain may not make a good traitor, but he would definitely be the Mr. Congeniality of the castle. Picture him serenading the faithful during strategy discussions and offering moral support at the breakfast table. We think that would be a beautiful sight.

Bob the Drag Queen

Bob the Drag Queen, known for being shady and hilarious, would be the perfect agent of chaos in The Traitors. Her unpredictable nature would make it impossible to tell which side she's on at any given time. Similarly, Miss Vanjie would excel in a similar role, while also providing plenty of meme fodder.

Naomi Campbell

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

The supermodel is so famous that she might be considered too big for the movie "The Traitors," but we can still dream. She would be a perfect fit for the role of a traitor because her co-stars would be too scared to suspect her, yet she could also play the role of a faithful character because everyone would expect her to be the traitor. Plus, just imagine the amazing outfits she would get to wear!

Jay Cutler

Jay Cutler, a former Chicago Bears quarterback, gained fame as the star of Very Cavallari. In the E! reality series featuring his then-wife Kristin Cavallari, he entertained viewers with his antics such as watching his deer cam and teasing her Uncommon James employees. Known for his stoic demeanor on the football field and in the Nashville boutique, he often left his Traitors castmates puzzled by his unreadable emotions.

Stassi Schroeder

Stassi is known for her sharp intuition when it comes to detecting lies and rallying others to her side. Her witty one-liners in confessionals have become a signature trait throughout seasons 1 to 8 of Vanderpump Rules. Additionally, she is credited with reviving the trend of statement necklaces, reminiscent of Parvati Shallow's iconic headbands from season 2.

Cameran Eubanks

During her time on Bravo's Southern Charm, Cameran Eubanks successfully managed to handle Shep Rose, Craig Conover, Austen Kroll, and the other Charleston Peter Pans. It would be intriguing to see how she interacts with a new cast of characters.

Scott Disick

With The Kardashians underutilizing Scott, let’s get the Lord to Scotland and see how long he would attempt to rub shoulders with reality stars he’s likely deemed below him.

Andi Dorfman

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

Andi, known for her iconic moment on The Bachelor with Juan Pablo Galavis, is now ready to stand up to more former reality stars a decade later. As an attorney herself, she understands the importance of staying true to oneself and not compromising one's career for the sake of reality TV fame. Just like Phaedra Parks, who showed that lawyers who prioritize their careers over reality television can excel in their profession.

Jessica Batten

Despite the entertainment value of each season of Love Is Blind, many are still captivated by the thrill of witnessing strangers attempt to find love without seeing each other for the first time. Jessica's chaotic behavior plays a significant role in this captivation. Moreover, her nonchalant attitude towards feeding wine to her dog raises concerns about what she may be capable of, such as slipping a poisoned drink to her enemies.

Taylor Hale

Us Weekly Dream Casts ‘The Traitors’ Season 3

Taylor is best known by fans for her impressive journey on Big Brother 24, where she started as a target in week 1 but ended up as the eventual winner. What many people tend to overlook is just how skilled she was at playing the game. Her knack for maneuvering through tough situations, winning competitions, and delivering one of the most memorable speeches in the history of the show all worked in her favor on The Traitors. She has a talent for persuading others, being able to sell you a Christmas tree even in January, all while wearing a smile that could make you believe you're getting the deal of a lifetime.

Derrick Levasseur

Fans of Big Brother have been eagerly waiting to see the BB16 champion compete against stronger opponents. There were rumors that he was almost cast for BB22 but was pulled at the last minute. Derrick, a former undercover cop, was so impressive in his season that some viewers found it uneventful as he effortlessly made it to the end and defeated Cody Calafiore, who later betrayed him in season 1.

Tony Vlachos

Tony Vlachos, a two-time Survivor winner, is known for his entertaining social gameplay. He is considered one of the most entertaining reality stars and is loved by fans for his strategic moves. Many believe that he would bring excitement and entertainment to The Traitors. The only question remains - where in the castle would he hide his spy nest?

Rob Mariano

Rob Mariano was rumored to be a cast member for season 2 of The Traitors, and we can't stop thinking about it. He comes from the old-school era of CBS reality TV, so we're curious to see if he still has what it takes. Plus, it would be entertaining to hear his strong Boston accent next to Alan's charming Scottish lilt.
