It’s time to ready the jazz hands and put on some ballroom heels, because Dancing With the Stars is almost back in action.
Good Morning America announced the famous (and infamous) faces heading to the DWTS stage for the show’s 33rd season on Wednesday. Twelve additional celebrities are joining previously announced competitor Stephen Nedoroscik — a.k.a. Olympic gymnast and everyone’s favorite pommel horse guy — including stars of the big and small screen, reality royalty, a fellow 2024 Olympian, a model, and even a convicted scammer.
Just some of the notable names joining the cast include Oscar nominee Eric Roberts, newly single Bachelorette star Jenn Tran, Tori Spelling, Reginald VelJohnson, Phaedra Parks, Dwight Howard, Joey Graziadei, and fake heiress Anna Delvey, who was described in the show’s official announcement as a “notorious ankle bracelet fashionista.”

Also new this season will be Ezra Sosa, who has been promoted to pro dancer status after first joining the DWTS troupe in 2021. Pro Witney Carson is also set to rejoin the show, after previously taking a season off.

Dancing With the Stars taps its way back into living rooms on Tuesday, Sept. 17, airing live at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+, and steaming the next day on Hulu. Check out the full cast and their professional dance partners below.
