Although CBS has not officially announced the cast for Survivor Season 52, rumors continue to circulate online as filming approaches. Several names have surfaced as potential contestants, featuring professionals from a variety of backgrounds who could bring unique strategies and personalities to the island.
As always, fans should remember that this list is based on reports and rumors and is subject to change until CBS officially reveals the cast.
Here’s everyone reportedly competing on Survivor Season 52 so far.

Dan Perez (28)
Dan Perez is reportedly one of the contestants for Survivor Season 52.
He is an account executive from Jersey City, New Jersey, originally from Haskell, New Jersey. Perez earned his degree from Rowan University and enjoys staying active outside of work by working out, reading, playing basketball and football, and spending time relaxing at the Jersey Shore.
His athletic background and competitive hobbies could make him an early physical threat in the game.
Bobby Hall (34)
Another rumored contestant is Bobby Hall, a theme park entertainer from Kissimmee, Florida.
Hall reportedly works at Disney World’s former Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser experience and is involved with a Twitch channel centered around Dungeons & Dragons gameplay. He’s also a longtime Survivor fan who has participated in multiple live reality games (LRGs) and even designs his own original strategy games.
His deep knowledge of the game could make him a dangerous strategist if the rumors prove accurate.
Drew Goins (31)
Journalist Drew Goins has also been rumored for Season 52.
Originally from Norfolk, Virginia, Goins now works for The Atlantic in Washington, D.C. He previously worked at The Washington Post and has appeared on several game shows, including Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions and Pop Culture Jeopardy.
His analytical background and trivia experience could translate well into Survivor’s strategic gameplay.
Tory Jason (33)
Tory Jason is another name reportedly attached to the cast.
An art director from New York City, Jason previously appeared on Season 1 of Fox’s The Floor. She began the competition in the Bugs category before eventually being eliminated while competing in the A-Listers category.
She also earned a degree from the University of Delaware and could bring creativity and social awareness to the competition.
Emily Ho-Abegglen (34)
Emily Ho-Abegglen rounds out the current list of rumored contestants.
She is a marketing manager from Madison, Wisconsin, working for Paul Davis Restoration of South Central Wisconsin. She earned her marketing degree from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and also serves as the head women’s golf coach at Carroll University.
Her leadership experience and coaching background may prove valuable in both tribal challenges and alliance-building.
More Contestants Expected
Only a handful of rumored contestants have surfaced so far, and additional names are expected to emerge as filming continues.
CBS traditionally keeps its cast under wraps until closer to the season premiere, meaning fans should expect more rumored cast members to appear over the coming weeks before the official announcement is made.
When Will Survivor Season 52 Premiere?
CBS has not announced an official premiere date for Survivor Season 52.
The network is expected to reveal the full cast, premiere date, and season theme closer to launch.
Until then, fans can continue following cast rumors while waiting for CBS to officially confirm who will compete for the title of Sole Survivor.
