"Survivor" has released the full list of castaways competing on the landmark 45th season of hit the reality show, which is set to premiere on CBS on Sept. 27.
The new season features 17 new contestants and one returning player competing for the $1 million cash prize and the title of Sole Survivor, according to the network.
The cast of "Survivor 45" includes an investment analyst, a critical care nurse and a therapist. It also features the return of Bruce Perreault, a contestant from last season who was medically evacuated just minutes into the first episode after hitting his head on a beam.
This season "continues to define a bold new era of the series with the return of risky advantages, game-changing twists and a relentless pace that will push these castaways to their limits," the network said in a news release.
The long-running reality series has been a hit since premiering in 2000. Last season saw Yamil "Yam Yam" Arocho crowned as the champion and winner of the cash prize.
