The 12 people who will be competing as members of one of two teams on the new Syfy competition series Opposite Worlds have been revealed, plus Syfy viewers have been asked to vote in two additional players from a list of four. The Syfy reality series will be hosted by Luke Tipple and is set to premiere on January 21, 2014, pitting the two teams against each other in a battle of the future versus the past.
The Set-Up:
On Opposite Worlds, 14 people from all walks of life face off in opposing teams that live in a house separated into two distinctly different worlds: one past and one future, each with its own unique advantages and disadvantages. Adding to the drama is a glass wall dividing the house into the two environments, allowing the teams to watch, envy, and dread each other’s every move.
Every week, as cast members compete in a series of fast-paced challenges, viewers will be asked to participate in real-time on social media and affect the outcome of each player’s fate.
