Survivor 2019’s fall installment is just weeks away, and CBS today announced the 20 new castaways to be competing for the million-dollar prize. The Survivor Island of The Idols castaways will also be joined by mentors Sandra Diaz-Twin and Boston Rob Mariano
“For our 39th season, we are bringing back two of our most dominant winners to serve as mentors to a new group of castaways,” said executive producer and host Jeff Probst. “It’s a SURVIVOR boot camp where each week, players will be instructed on a different facet of the game and then have a chance to test what they’ve learned for a shot at an advantage.”
Now let’s meet the Survivor 39 castaways.
