Season 35's cast includes everyone from an Olympian to a urologist
On Wednesday, CBS revealed the cast of Survivor's 35th season, Heroes v. Healers v. Hustlers, and it includes some interesting folks. The 18 castaways include an Olympian, an NFL cornerback and a urologist.
This season's concept is that the 18 competitors will be divided into three teams of six based on how they're perceived by others. Heroes and Healers are pretty self-explanatory, but Hustlers are pretty interesting -- they'll have to earn respect by proving that they're not trying to get one over on others (or not!).
The show is returning to the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji for the third straight season.
