The new Survivor cast has officially been announced.
Survivor: Cagayan – Brains vs. Beauty vs. Brawn and the list includes an all new cast.
As expected, there are some star plants mixed in with the regular castmembers. The most notable name on the list is former NBA All-star, Cliff Robinson. The 18-season veteran joins Jimmy Johnson, Gary Hogeboom and Jeff Kent as former athletes/coaches who have all competed on the program.
Another familiar face with a sports connection is Miami Marlins president David Samson who will surprisingly compete on the Brains team (despite his obvious athleticism). Samson left the Marlins in the middle of the season just so that he could get the chance to compete on the show that he loves.
Other notable newbies include a nuclear engineer, two former NFL cheerleaders (one on brains and one on beauty), two police officers and a former Miss Kentucky Teen USA.
