Among the lineup are music legends, actors, TV stars and Olympians, including everyone from Donny Osmond to Laverne Cox.
Kicking off the season on September 26 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC will be Seinfeld star Jason Alexander, professional wrestler Mike “The Miz” Mizanin and Dancing with the Stars dancer Cheryl Burke.
The new season may be bringing in a new batch of celebrities, who will play for their charities, but some things stay the same. On September 8, Pat Sajak and Vanna White have signed a new deal to host the game show until 2024. This came around the same time that executive producer and (briefly) Jeopardy! host Mike Richards exited as executive producer.

ABC has not yet announced who will face the wheel when. However, we now know who will be taking part in the first four editions of Season 2. Those lineups will be as follows:
Episode 1 (September 26): Jason Alexander, Michael Mizanin and Cheryl BurkeEpisode 2 (October 3): Andy Richter, Vanilla Ice and Caroline RheaEpisode 3 (October 10): Donny Osmond, Jeff Garlin and Amber RileyEpisode 4 (October 17): Melissa Joan Hart, Tituss Burgess and Lacey Chabert
The game show is also expected to have one big change this year. Per Deadline, Sajak will no longer do the game’s “Final Spin.” Instead, the contestant who is in charge of the wheel at that time will do the honors.
“If you think about it, by doing the ‘final spin’ I, as host, had an impact on the outcome of the game and that has always bothered me because it just didn’t feel right,” Sajak said to the outlet. “With this change, only the contestants determine the outcome of the game and the host does not impose themself in any way.”
Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Season 2 airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT on ABC.
