Since its premiere in 2015, the Aussie reality show has seen countless stars from various fields don an akubra and dive right into the outrageous, heart-racing and oftentimes disgusting challenges.
The 2026 season will be no different, with Channel 10 already drip-feeding clues on social media about next year’s star-studded lineup.
So put your detective’s cap on — here’s everything we know so far about the new season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
Who is hosting I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Australia in 2026?
If you thought you’d be able to get over your crush on Robert Irwin following his headline-making stint on Dancing With The Stars, the wildlife warrior is returning to screens early next year as the host of I’m A Celebrity.
He will be joined by longtime co-host Julia Morris, who has been a part of the show since it first premiered.
The first trailer for the new season dropped in November with Robert and Julia showing off their dance moves and singing a cover of Alicia Bridges’ “I Love the Nightlife”, aptly renamed “We Love The Wildlife”.
Where is I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Australia being filmed?
Apart from two seasons filmed on home soil during the pandemic, I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia has, for the majority of its run, been filmed in South Africa.
Next year’s season will be no different, with the celebs calling Kruger National Park home for however long they last in the jungle.
Funnily enough, the UK version of the series has been filmed in Dungay, NSW, since season two in 2003.
Who is in the cast for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Australia 2026?
The contestants’ identities are typically kept under wraps until the season premiere, although there may be an announcement or two in the days leading up.
In the meantime, Channel 10 has begun dropping a list of spicy clues on social media for fans to begin doing some Swiftie-level sleuthing.
Here’s the list of contestant clues so far:
- Rugby Romeo
- Hollywood Sitcom Star
- International Supermodel
Rugby Romeo

I’m A Celebrity has put three former Bachelors in the jungle over the years, so it wouldn’t be too surprising if there was another this season in the form of Luke Bateman.

The former NRL player starred on the eleventh season of the dating show in 2023 (aka the final season before it was axed), but blew up earlier this year when he went viral on BookTok and scored a two-book deal.
Other potential celebs that have been guessed on social media include NRL players Nathan Cleary, who is in a high-profile relationship with Matildas player Mary Fowler, and Reece Walsh.
Hollywood Sitcom Star

The promo for this celeb teases that he will “go off with a big bang”, all but confirming it’s someone from The Big Bang Theory.
Fans have already guessed that this will be either Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons or Kevin Sussman, who visited Australia in 2023 for Supanova Comic Con.
International Superstar

This snazzy package begins with our hosts dishing out a pretty ‘yuge clue: “An international supermodel is strutting her way into Africa.”
Alongside the occupation, the duo dropped that this incoming celeb also has connections to “rock ‘n’ roll royalty”.
With those two golden pieces of tea, fans are speculating that this incoming contestant could be Tyra Banks, who’s moved Down Under with SMiZE and DREAM.
Others have thrown in Kelly Osbourne‘s name due to her father, the late Ozzy Osbourne.
Another name that’s been thrown into the mix is Rachel Hunter, an NZ model and actress who was previously married to Rod Stewart.
When is I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Australia 2026 coming out?
Mark it in your calendars, the 12th season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia will premiere on Channel 10 and 10Play on Sunday, January 18, 2026.

But as we wait for that to drop, you can watch all of the previous seasons on 10Play.
