A group of well-known celebrities, including Tinashe and Porsha Williams Guobadia, are headed into “space” for Fox’s new unscripted series.
The network recently announced the 12 stars “who will pack their bags and prepare for launch to the red planet as crew members” on the new show Stars on Mars, which is premiering June 5 at 8 p.m. on Fox.
'Stars On Mars' will follow 12 celebrities as they compete and conquer "Mars".
Adventurous celebrities prepare for take-off to the red planet, where they will live, eat, sleep, strategize and bond with each other in the same space station. During their stay, they will be faced with authentic conditions that simulate life on Mars, and they must use their brains and brawn – or maybe just their stellar social skills – to outlast the competition and claim the title of “brightest star in the galaxy.” The celebrities will compete in missions and will vote to eliminate one of their crewmates each week, sending them back to Earth. Cue the intergalactic alliances and rivalries. Stars on Mars will send these famous rookie space travelers where no one has gone before and reveal who has what it takes to survive life on “Mars.”
The cast includes professional athletes, reality star, successful entrepreneurs, as well as television and film actors.
The all-star cast includes Lance Armstrong, Natasha Leggero, Marshawn Lynch, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Adam Rippon, Ronda Rousey, Tom Schwartz, Richard Sherman, Tinashe, Porsha Williams Guobadia, Tallulah Willis and Ariel Winter.
Legendary actor and Star Trek icon William Shatner will serve as Mission Control.
