“Destination X” season 2 cast features “Love Island USA, Survivor, Big Brother” stars (exclusive)

Key Points

• Destination X is bringing in even more reality all-stars for season 2.

• Folks from Survivor, Big Brother, Love Island USA, and Below Deck will be competing against newbies… and each other.

• We’ve got the exclusive first look at the full cast.

X marks the spot for a new crop of contestants competing on season 2 of Destination X, and that crop includes even more reality TV veterans who will be playing on NBC alongside newbies in pursuit of the $250,000 prize on the travel competition series in which people need to figure out where they heck they are while competing in challenges and avoiding elimination.

Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive official reveal of the entire cast.

While season 1 of Destination X featured Big Brother winner Josh Martinez, Love Island USA’s JaNa Craig and Peter Weber of The Bachelor of Traitors fame taking on a cast of otherwise all new players, season 2 will see an influx of even more familiar faces.

Instead of just one Big Brother alum, the Jeffrey Dean Morgan-hosted series will welcome two for season 2 in the form of Dan Gheesling and Tiffany Mitchell (who also both competed on The Traitors).

Gheesling played Big Brother twice and made it to the end both times, winning season 10 and then coming up with the most famous move in franchise history during season 14 with “Dan’s Funeral.” Meanwhile, Tiffany was part of Big Brother’s most powerful alliance ever with season 21’s the Cookout.

The show is also doubling its Love Island USA quota by bringing in Peacock stars Nic Vansteenberghe (season 7 runner-up) and Kaylor Martin (season 6).

Destination X will also welcome in its first Survivor competitor in season 2, as Ghost Island champion Wendell Holland (who also competed on The Goat and stared on ABC’s recent reboot of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition) will be vying for the prize. Below Deck star Aesha Scott completes the celebrity casting.

However, several of the newbies are used to the spotlight as well. Sasha Sloan is a best-selling fantasy author (The Ruins Beneath Us) and former Miss Utah who also recently starred in a Star Wars fan film titled Dawn of the Clone Wars. Amun Cosme is a professional MMA fighter, while Matthew Gaston is a botanist with a large social media following.

There are 13 competitors in total on the season, which recently wrapped production and has yet to set a premiere date. Check out the full cast below.
