ABC has officially announced the Season 4 cast of Bachelor in Paradise, which is set to premiere with a two-hour episode on Tuesday, August 8 at 8PM ET/PT.

Starting the following week, the show will air on Monday nights.

The cast members will all receive a second or third shot at finding love on reality TV in Mexico over the course of six weeks of episodes, and additional bachelors and bachelorettes will be announced at a later date.

The new season will feature "shocking twists, surprises, unexpected guests, and some of the most unlikely relationships in Bachelor" history, according to the network.

The Season 4 cast includes Amanda Stanton, who will be looking for a relationship shortly after her engagement to Josh Murray crashed and burned, as well as Robby Hayes, the runner-up from JoJo Fletcher's season of The Bachelorette.

Corinne Olympios will also be face to face again with her rival from Nick Viall's season, Taylor Nolan.

Bachelor in Paradise has sparked a total of five engagements in the last three seasons, but only two couples have remained together -- Season 2 alums Jade Roper and Tanner Tolbert, who are now married and expecting a baby girl this year, and Carly Waddell and Evan Bass, who have been engaged since Season 3's finale in 2016 and rumored to be getting married during Season 4's filming.
