The first official trailer for Love Island. The new CBS summer series will be hosted by T.J. Lavin, who has been hosting The Challenge on MTV since 2005, and competing contestants will be fighting for a $500,000 grand prize.
Last week, CBS announced the cast of The Challenge: USA, and introduced fans to the 28 reality competition veterans who will be vying for the prize. Big Brother stars include the winner of Big Brother 23, Xavier Prather, as well as other stars from that season, including Kyland Young, Tiffany Mitchell, Alyssa Lopez, and Derek Xiao. Enzo Palumbo and David Alexander from season 22 are also competing. From Survivor, season 35 winner Ben Driebergen is competing alongside fellow winners Tyson Apostol, from season 27, and Sarah Lacina, from season 34. Other Survivor alumni include Danny McCray, from season 41, Domenick Abbate, from season 36, and Desi Williams, from season 35. The Amazing Race season 32 winner James Wallington will be ing the show, competing with popular stars Leo Temory and Cayla Platt. Love Island favorites Melvin "Cinco" Holland Jr., Kyra Green, Cashay Proudfoot, and season 2 winner Justine Ndiba round out the highlights of The Challenge: USA cast.
The Challenge host T.J. promises "athleticism" and "drama" as the contestants have "the chance to go down in reality competition history." The teaser promises a "new twist" and "new betrayal" every week and asks the question, "who has what it takes to be the best?" The trailer features a boatload of challenges that will push these reality television stars to their limits.

In the preview, contestants show pride for their original competition shows. James, from The Amazing Race, says, "I want to prove the Amazing Racers can hang with the best of 'em." In the dramatic trailer, tensions run high between the players as they all desire to be the best. The incoming Challenge: USA contestants will be competing in death-defying challenges, including bungee jumping off buildings, driving cars over obstacles in a desert, and maneuvering through high platforms over water. The intensity will be at an all-time high, as only one contestant can walk away with the prize.
The trailer for The Challenge: USA should absolutely get fans excited for this thrilling summer event. The new show has everything that reality competition fans are looking for—a strong cast filled with stars they already know, intense challenges that will push contestants to the edge, and plenty of dramatic moments. The twists and turns will keep the stars, and the viewers, on the edge of their seats the whole summer. If the trailer was any indication, The Challenge: USA is going to be epic.
