11 singles will be searching for a romantic match on season two of the reality dating series, Love Island. CBS just announced the second season cast members who will be holed up in a special “bubble” at Caesars Entertainment’s The Cromwell in Las Vegas.
CBS will be taking special precautions to keep the season two cast and crew safe as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to affect lives across the globe.
Arielle Vanderberg returns to host and Matthew Hoffman is back as the Love Island narrator when the new season kicks off on August 24, 2020. The first episode expands to two-hours beginning at 8pm ET/PT. Additional episodes will air nightly, with special “Love Island: More to Love” Saturday night episodes featuring new footage as well as the best moments from the preceding week.
The network’s planned a season one marathon airing on Saturday, August 22nd and Sunday, August 23rd on MTV2.
Season Details and Cast, Courtesy of CBS:
The matchmaking begins as a group of single “Islanders” come together in a stunning villa in Las Vegas, ready to embark on a summer of dating, romance and ultimately relationships. Every few days the Islanders pair up, and those who are not coupled are at risk of being dumped from the island. Islanders are on the lookout for romance, but the road to love doesn’t always run smoothly. Challenges abound with intriguing new Islander arrivals and dramatic twists as friendships and relationships form.
In addition to choosing their partners wisely, Islanders must also win the hearts of viewers who have the opportunity to shape events on screen and ultimately crown one lucky couple the winner, who will then have the chance to walk away with both love and the cash prize.
