The Traitors' Bob The Drag Queen Has A 'Thirst For Blood' In New Season 3 Trailer — Plus, Get Release Date

A brand-new trailer for The Traitors Season 3 is here and host Alan Cumming's pulling punches like never before. (I mean, talk about an entrance!)

In the new video released Wednesday (and embedded above), the always dapper Cumming teases the events he and his precious pup Lala have prepared in the "murderous" new season. Bob the Drag Queen details his "thirst for blood," while Big Brother vet Britney Haynes whispers mischievously, "I don't want to be the duck, I want to shoot the duck!" We also bare witness to heaps of creepy crawlies and snakes, and... was that someone soaring through the air attached to a helicopter?!

Press play on the clip to peek at some of the other explosions in store when Season 3 debuts on Peacock Thursday, Jan. 9, 2025 with a three-episode premiere event.

The series, which was renewed for Season 3 in February, combines "the witty humor of returning host (and producer) Cumming with the deceit and treachery of a celeb-fueled competition set in the Scottish Highlands," reads its official description. "Contestants work together on a series of exhilarating missions to build a prize fund worth up to $250,000. Hidden amongst the faithful are the traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the faithful and claim the prize for themselves."

In August, Peacock ordered an additional two seasons, ensuring that The Traitors will run through Season 5. The XL pickup comes after The Traitors' sophomore season won two Primetime Emmys: Outstanding Reality Competition Program and Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program.

The Season 3 cast also includes Bob Harper (The Biggest Loser), Boston Rob Mariano (Survivor), Chrishell Stause (Selling Sunset), Dorinda Medley (The Real Housewives of New York City), pro wrestler Nikki Garcia, Tom Sandoval (Vanderpump Rules) and more. (View the rest of the cast here.)
