For the 44th time, a group of 18 castaways will be deserted and left to fend for themselves for weeks all with the hopes of winning a $1 million prize. For just the fourth time, they’ll do so over just 26 days without any food rations and minimal supplies.
The COVID-era of Survivor has led to massive changes in gameplay and strategy. Now an all new cast will put their skills to the test as they attempt to outwit, outlast and outplay their fellow competitors.
Survivor 44 begins Wednesday, March 1 on CBS (streaming on Paramount+) with Jeff Probst hosting as usual.
Here are the 18 castaways set to battle it out on the islands of Fiji.
