Who Is in the ‘Celebrity Traitors’ Cast?

As of now, no celebrities have been confirmed as cast members. However, Courteney Cox quickly became a fan-favorite choice in April 2023 when the Friends alum and Claudia appeared in a BBC casting call video. In the clip, Courteney initially appeared fully cloaked while standing beside Claudia as she invited viewers to participate in the series.

After Courteney revealed her face to the camera, she asked Claudia if she could join the show.

“I’ve said this to you before. No,” Claudia told the Scream franchise star. “You cannot apply if you’re a celebrity … or as famous as this one. Now, off you go.”

Once the video made the rounds on social media, several fans encouraged the network to make a celebrity edition of the series.
