After Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 1 took viewers by storm as they watched celebrities from TV, sports and music compete, Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 comes to fill out the fall slate of unscripted content on FOX

In season 2, a new line-up of celebrities volunteer to put themselves through rigorous training and exhausting challenges at the hands of directing staff, all in an effort to test how tough they really are not only physically, but mentally. In a rarity in competition shows, the series once again doesn’t have eliminations, but rather leaves celebrities the option to quit. If season 1 is any indication, there will be plenty of competitors that throw in the towel. 

Here’s everything we know about Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2.  

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 release date

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 premieres on Monday, September 25, at 9 pm ET/PT on FOX. The series will follow the premiere of Kitchen Nightmares season 8

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 trailer

While an official trailer for the new season has not yet been released, a teaser debuted on July 31. Check out the video below giving you a first glimpse of the celebrity contestants. 

Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 cast

Helping to lead the Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2 celebrity contestants is Vanderpump Rules star Tom Sandoval. He's coming off an Emmy-nominated, yet very dramatic, season of the hit Bravo show. He was at the center of the infamous Scandoval event that took over pop culture, and is seemingly trying to rehabilitate his public persona. It will be interesting to see if his stint on Special Forces will help shape his image going into Vanderpump Rules season 11.  

Joining Sandoval are the following stars: 

  • Dez Bryant
  • Tyler Cameron
  • Savannah Chrisley
  • Blac Chyna
  • Brian Austin Green
  • Robert Horry
  • Erin Jackson
  • Bode Miller
  • Jack Osbourne
  • Tara Reid

Here is an official synopsis of season 2: 

"The hit series Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test returns for a second season with a new group of celebrity recruits ready to test their bodies and minds as they are pushed to the limit through some of the harshest, most grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process. 

"This season, the group of celebrities which includes medaled Olympians, beloved actors, iconic television personalities and a seven-time NBA champion, will arrive in an all-new treacherous winter terrain to face extreme training drills, including an emergency escape from a submerged helicopter, a cliff crawl across a snowcapped mountain peak and a daring backwards dive into icy waters in the dead of night. There are no votes and no eliminations – just survival."
