Despite the fact that filming for The Challenge season 38 has apparently just began, several facts about the cast and production have emerged, fueling fan interest. The Challenge, a popular MTV competition show, has developed throughout the years, and recent seasons are almost unrecognisable from the game’s beginnings. Season 38 is shaping up to be no different, with jaw-dropping daily challenges, severe elimination challenges, and participants from all around the world.
Spies, Lies, and Allies was the theme of The Challenge season 37, and while fans were growing tired with spy-themed seasons, there was still a lot to love. Many fan favourites from previous seasons returned, including Chris “CT” Tamburello, Tori Deal, Kyle Christie, and others, who have poured their blood, sweat, and tears into the game for years. Several new Challenge stars, including Emy Alupei and Emanuel Neagu, appeared in Spies, Lies & Allies.
Many fans are expecting for something different as The Challenge enters its 38th season. The Challenge: All Stars has been thrilling viewers on Paramount+, and many fans are hoping for a new season that is both fun and interesting. Fans have bemoaned the lack of great winners and dull settings in recent seasons, and it appears that producers have heard and are ready to give a spectacular season.
The Challenge Season 38 Veterans
Season 38, like Spies, Lies & Allies, will feature a mix of seasoned veterans and up-and-comers. Although several contestants are in quarantine as alternates and may never make it on the show, it appears that the entire season 38 cast has been released. However, the roster of returning veterans is impressive, and it includes several Challenge champions. Johnny Bananas, Laurel Stucky, Turbai “Turbo” Camkiran, Kailah Casillas, Devin Walker, Tori Deal, Nelson Thomas, Nany Gonzalez, Fessy Shafaat, Aneesa Ferreira, Josh Martinez, Kaycee Clark, Nam Vo, Emmy Alupei, Emmanuel Neagu, Jay Starret, Michele Fitzgerald, and Corey Lay will be among the season 38 veterans. Wes Bergmann, a current All Stars contender, was also supposed to be in the season 38 cast, but he has apparently left the show for unspecified reasons.

The Challenge Season 38 Theme
The Challenge has a different theme for each season that influences the gameplay, and for season 38, the producers are changing things up a bit.

Chauncey Palmer (Amber B’s boyfriend), Jakk Maddox (Ex on the Peak and Laurel’s friend), Sam Bird (Love Island UK and Kailah’s husband), James Simon (Aneesa’s friend), Kenny Clark (Kaycee’s brother), and Tamara Alfaro (Turbo’s girlfriend) are among the new competitors who are connected to the veteran players.
