On the other hand, a few reality TV stars have either been dropped or misreported as being a part of The Challenge: CBS cast. Despite initial reports that they would compete in the season, Christmas Abbott (BB19 and BB22) and Love Island USA season 3 stars Korey Gandy, Olivia Kaiser, Josh Goldstein, and Shannon St. Clair will not be on the show.
The Challenge: CBS Filming Location & Date Rumors
Viewers also want to know when and where The Challenge: CBS will be filmed given that most seasons of the series take place in different cities and/or countries. According to notorious Vevmo user PinkRose, the entire cast departed from Miami between March 10 and 11 and traveled to Argentina, which is where this season is rumored to be filmed. It typically takes about a month for production to film an entire season of the show, and the All-Stars seasons came out about two months after they were filmed. If one expects the same turnaround time for The Challenge: CBS, the series might come out on Paramount+ around May 2022.
