Two of the Survivor 50's castaways are from Survivor's most recent 49th season -- Savannah Louie, a 31-year-old former reporter from Walnut Creek, CA, and Rizo Velovic, a 25-year-old in tech sales from Yonkers, NY.
Savannah was crowned champion of Survivor's 49th season after tying a Survivor record with a handful of other powerful women for four Individual Immunity wins in a single season.
Rizo, for his part, finished the season in fourth place after he lost the fire-making challenge to Savannah.
The Survivor 50 cast will also include two castaways who are returning for the fifth time -- Cirie Fields and Ozzy Lusth -- tying Rob "Boston Rob" Mariano's record.
Survivor viewers may also recognize The White Lotus creator Mike White, who will be reunited with two of his former Survivor: David vs. Goliath castmates.
The Survivor 50 cast will also feature many players who are fresh on viewers' minds, as whopping 11 of the 24 castaways are from the past five seasons of Survivor, and five of those returning players are from Seasons 48 and 49.
Survivor's middle era appears to have been neglected, however, as there are no Season 50 castaways who originally competed on Seasons 19 through 31.
