Peacock’s award-winning reality competition series The Traitors will return with season four early next year, with Emmy winner Alan Cumming back as host. Today, the streamer released a special “Meet the Competition” video with the 23 celebrities who’ll be attempting to ferret out the Traitors among the Faithful.
The new season premieres on January 8, 2026 with the release of the first three episodes. New season four episodes will stream on Thursdays at 6pm PT/9pm ET.
“Emmy Award-winning series The Traitors is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game. The entertainment industry’s most competitive reality stars and famous faces play the ultimate murder mystery game. Hosted by award-winning actor Alan Cumming at an ancient castle set deep in the Scottish Highlands, contestants work together on a series of exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000,” reads Peacock’s synopsis. “Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves. Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree, while the Faithful try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game. If the Faithful contestants banish all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if a Traitor (or Traitors) makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.”
