Season 2

The third of the Australian television series The Traitors was announced on October 12, 2025. [1]

Production

In August 2025, rumours surfaced that 10 were considering reviving the series for 2025, based on the continued international success of the The Traitors franchise. The new season would feature a cast of Reality TV personalities (much like the American version), and is set to be filmed in New Zealand, with South Pacific Pictures, the production team behind The Traitors NZ , producing the new season . [2] [3] [4] These rumours were later confirmed with 10 also announcing Gretel Killeen as host. [5]

The cast was announced in October 2025, shortly after filming was completed. [6] Similar to the American edition and unlike the earlier seasons, this season's cast was composed entirely of reality show participants and public figures. Notably, this is the first season to feature a family relationship - with twin brothers Josh & Luke Packham, who both participated on Love Island Australia 2 and as a team on The Block: Fans V Faves 2 .
