The Traitors obsessives, have no fear. As soon as 2025's UK series finishes on Friday, you will be treated to The Traitors US almost instantly.
The US version will make a return this week, with a $250,000 cash prize up for grabs. Of course, Claudia Winkleman will not present – Scottish actor and icon Alan Cumming will step in. FYI, the series is filmed in the same Scottish castle as the UK series.
For the uninitiated, The Traitors (both UK and US versions) is a reality TV game show that sees a group of contestants hole up in a castle, with a small number of Traitors secretly living amongst a larger group of Faithfuls. Alongside various missions and challenges, The Faithfuls must try and identify the Traitors before they “murder” the Faithfuls. It's camp, it's gripping… and interestingly, the US series features celebrity contestants, adding another juicy element to proceedings. The series has been a banger both sides of the pond – it even won an Emmy in 2024.
Here's what we know about The Traitors US season 3, including when exactly it will drop in the UK.

The first five episodes of the new series of The Traitors US will land on BBC iPlayer on Friday 24 January, the same day as The Traitors UK final. An episode a week will drop each Friday after that until early March, according to reports.
