Dancing with the Stars Season 35: Which Celebrities Are In and Who's Being Rumored

The casting speculation machine is running at full speed ahead of Dancing with the Stars season 35, with multiple names being floated for the upcoming fall 2026 cycle.

ABC has locked in three celebrity contestants so far, though the network is keeping most details under wraps. Beyond the confirmed lineup, a number of additional stars are rumored to be in talks for the competition.

The picture becomes more complicated when factoring in the various stages of involvement. Two celebrities have publicly acknowledged receiving invitations to participate, while at least one other has denied connection to the show entirely. Meanwhile, another star was reportedly extended an offer for the season.

The complete cast announcement is slated for September 2, 2026, when it will air live on Good Morning America. That reveal will settle the ongoing speculation and confirm which celebrities will be hitting the dance floor when the season premieres.

Until then, the rumor mill continues to churn with speculation about potential pairings and surprise additions to the roster.
