Gladiators is back, my people, and it’s bringing a new cast with it. That’s right, after 15 years off the air, 12 new Gladiators are entering the ring, hungry for gladiatorial glory. What’s more, in this season, we’ll have a mix of disciplined warriors, rule-breakers, and ruffians.
Gladiators is a series where a bunch of buff people compete in a gauntlet of physical challenges. We’re talking wrestling matches, obstacle course races, and aerial-based fights. If you win enough challenges, you will go down in Gladiator history.
The hosts of this new series are Liz Ellis and Beau Ryan. Liz is one of Australia’s most beloved netball players, while Beau Ryan is the host of The Amazing Race Australia.
But who are these heroes and villains? What are their stories? Here’s everything we know about the Gladiators’ 2024 cast.
