The Traitors Season 4 cast list is here! The upcoming season features 22 new contestants, including former Real Housewife Lisa Rinna, Rob Rausch, Survivor legend Rob Cesternino, and many more. Dorinda Medley is the first returning cast member. The Bravo star will have a second chance at victory after being the Traitors’ first victim in Season 3. Now that the cast list is public, let’s unpack it together and decipher who has the best (and worst) shot at taking home the prize pot.
The Traitors Season 4 cast includes these potential winners
Winning The Traitors is not an easy task. The path to win is all about balance. Players should be vocal at the roundtable, but not too vocal. If they are overly chatty, the Faithfuls will suspect they are attempting to throw the group off their scent. If they are silent, the Traitors will feel they have no use for them. They can’t use them as a scapegoat, so why keep them around? It’s a tricky game. One that requires a lot of strategic and social skill. There are a few players in the Season 4 cast that stood out to me as potential frontrunners. I believe these players have what it takes to make it to the end. Let’s take a look.
Rob Cesternino
Rob Cesternino is often regarded as one of the smartest Survivor players of all time. He loves the game and has studied it well. He knows how to navigate the social politics of competition shows, mastering the art of floating between two alliances.
I feel a little silly for picking a Survivor player as my Traitors winner pick. Usually, they don’t fare too well on the Peacock show. Season after season, we’ve seen Survivor greats tarnish their reputation on The Traitors, but I have faith in Rob. He’s respected in the Survivor world, but his name doesn’t carry the same weight as “Boston Rob” Mariano or Tony Vlachos. He’s also easier to get along with and doesn’t have a huge ego. I think he has what it takes to win it all.
Tiffany Mitchell
Tiffany Mitchell was the smartest player on Big Brother 23 and the favorite to win. Unfortunately, her threat level made her path to victory difficult, and she narrowly missed out on the $750,000 prize. Fans have been pitching Tiffany’s name to Peacock for years. Thankfully, our prayers were finally answered. I am hesitant to put her on this list after watching how other Big Brother masterminds fared in the Scottish castle, but Tiffany is her own woman. Danielle Reyes and Dan Gheesling may have flopped but she could emerge victorious. Here’s hoping Tiffany makes BB fans proud this season!
Colton Underwood
Former Bachelors have a surprisingly high success rate on The Traitors. Arie Luyendyk Jr. made it to the finale in Season 1 and Peter Weber was an unexpected strategic powerhouse. Maybe it’s the unbridled confidence that being insanely good looking provides you.
I suspect Colton Underwood will do well on The Traitors. He’s athletic, so he’ll likely secure a few shields and help improve the prize pot. He’s also charming, which will help him at the roundtables. He doesn’t give Traitors energy and I suspect he won’t be targeted early on.
The Traitors Season 4 cast also includes these players who have no shot
In addition to the players I saw as frontrunners, there were a few players who stood out for the opposite reason. Players who I think will have a difficult time making it to finale night for various reasons. Some may say too much at the roundtables, others may be too appeasing, making them a nice target for the Traitors. Here are the players I think have no shot to win.
Maura Higgins
Maura Higgins is extremely charming and likable, but I suspect her affable personality may be a double-edged sword in the castle. I predict she’ll have a similar trajectory to Chrishell Stause from Season 3. I think she will go far as a Faithful, but eventually, the Traitors will realize she’s never getting banished. They’ll kill her in the night, ending her shot at victory. Maura may have a shot at victory if she’s selected as a Traitor. I would love to see that. But something tells me she’ll be chosen as a Faithful.
Lisa Rinna
Lisa Rinna is gifted at making enemies and pissing people off. I love that about her but I suspect her brash delivery will make her a target in the castle. She dishes out accusations and stirs up drama like it’s nothing, which I suspect it may anger some of her cast mates. I think the Traitors will see the benefit of keeping her around, but I think it’s only a matter of time before she is banished at the roundtable. I just don’t see a path to victory for this Bravo star.
Rob Rausch
Rob Rausch has a lot of opinions and I predict he’ll make them known at the roundtable. The Love Island USA star will likely lead some of the roundtables and throw out some accusations. It may benefit him in the short run, but it will eventually catch up with him. My guess is that he’ll correctly identify a Traitor but not be able to get them out on his first try, which will seal his fate once nightfall arrives.
The Traitors US is available to stream on Peacock.
