A special season of “The Challenge” is on the way. No rookies or members of random reality-tv shows will be part of this season, which is made up solely of former “Real World” or “Road Rules” cast members.

“The Challenge: All-Stars” premieres on April 1 on Paramount+. Over the course of nine episodes, some of the most memorable contestants in “Challenge” history will vie for $500,000.

Among the returning veterans is Mark Long, who has won two “Challenge” championships and last competed on the show in 2012. Alton Williams is also back for the first time in nine years. Kendal Sheppard was part of the winning team in 2004 on “The Inferno,” the only season on which she appeared.

Trishelle Cannatella is one of the 22 cast members. Cannatella appeared on several reality-TV shows after the 2002 season of ‘“The Real World: Las Vegas.”

It isn’t just contestants that have been away from the show for years that are part of “All-Stars.” Four-time champion Darrell Taylor is an “All-Star” cast member, as is Aneesa Ferreira. Both Taylor and Ferreira are competing on “The Challenge: Double Agents,” which is currently airing on MTV.

Three-time champion Derrick Kosinski has to be considered among the favorites to win “All-Stars.” He was last seen as a mercenary on “Vendettas” in 2018, winning one of the greatest eliminations in “Challenge” history.
