LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Following the successful premiere of Season 1 in January, Peacock has renewed the reality game show 'The Traitor'. The show is based on the Dutch television show, 'De Verraders', and is hosted by Scottish actor Alan Cumming. In the show, each contestant completes daily tasks in order to receive a greater reward. Nobody is aware of who has been eliminated until they are missing from the breakfast table the next morning.

According to Collider, Corie Henson, NBC Universal’s EVP of entertainment said, “Alan Cumming is a well-dressed genius, the producers at Studio Lambert are brilliant storytellers and the show is the perfect mix of drama and suspense to keep our Traitors and Faithfuls craving more,” he said of the renewal. The series is produced by Studio Lambert while Lambert, Mike Cotton, Toni Ireland, Sam Rees-Jones, Tim Harcourt, and Jack Burgess serve as executive producers.
