Survivor 50 will premiere in late February on CBS and streaming with a Paramount+ subscription, and will feature a group of returning players. The cast of Survivor 50 is pretty stacked, including both legacy players and some standouts from the New Era. In a conversation with THR, Probst named one such fan-favorite, saying:Somebody who got away who we really wanted was Amanda [Kimmel]. Amanda Kimmel is in many of the best Survivor seasons, including Micronesia and Heroes vs. Villains. Survivor 50 will premiere on February 25th on CBS as part of the 2026 TV schedule.
