Iconic Captain Kirk actor William Shatner is bringing 12 actors, musicians and reality stars to the red planet for Fox’s latest reality television show “Stars on Mars.” Among them, “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” alumna Porsha Williams will be joining the cast.
Fox’s newest unscripted series will see how various celebrities compete to colonize a faux Mars environment. In a science fiction take on “Survivor,” contestants will vote each week to send one of their teammates “back to Earth” until only one remains as “the brightest star in the galaxy.”
The cast will include “Superbad” and “Vanderpump Rules” stars, a Super Bowl champion and a UFC legend.
“An out-of-this-world new unscripted series, in which household names trade in their possessions, status and glamourous lifestyles on Earth for an insane and hilarious summer on ‘Mars,’” Fox’s description of the show reads. “Their mission? To be suited up with no space to go, as they colonize, compete and conquer their new galaxy surroundings, until there is just one ‘celebronaut’ left standing.”
Here is a look at the full cast: Lance Armstrong, Natasha Leggero, Marshawn Lynch, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Adam Rippon, Ronda Rousey, Tom Schwartz, Richard Sherman, Tinashe, Porsha Williams, Tallulah Willis, and Ariel Winter.
Atlanta-based reality TV star Porsha Williams announced her departure from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” back in 2021, having been on the show since 2012 just after marrying former NFL player Kordell Stewart. Williams and Stewart divorced shortly after joining the cast, and Williams had a daughter with entrepreneur Dennis McKinley in 2019. Williams is now married to businessman Simon Guobadia.
“Stars on Mars” premiers this summer, Monday, June 5, on Fox.
