ABC has announced the 25 eligible bachelors who will be competing on The Bachelorette's eleventh season.

The 25 bachelors must choose between two beautiful ladies -- the charming Britt Nilsson or the wise-cracking, fun-loving Kaitlyn Bristowe -- on Night 1 to serve as the official Bachelorette when it premieres with a two-night event on Monday, May 18 from 9-11PM ET/PT and Tuesday, May 19 from 8-9PM ET/PT.

The show will then return to its regular time slot of Mondays from 8-10PM ET/PT beginning on May 25.

According to the network, the cast of men includes "a buff" fitness coach "whose mother's untimely death left him with painful scars," a "dashing" executive recruiter who's a Princeton graduate, a "cocky and confident" architectural engineer "with movie star good looks," an insurance agent who's "the total package," and a "charming" dentist with "a million dollar smile."

During The Bachelorette's eleventh-season debut, host Chris Harrison will greet Britt and Kaitlyn, and then the two women will stand side by side as the limos arrive one at a time full of potential partners, who hope to make a lasting impression.

Some suitors will give both women equal attention, while others make it no secret which woman they'd prefer to be The Bachelorette star. Brady, a singer and songwriter, will make an immediate connection with Britt and explain that he's there for her.

Jared will open his shirt to show off his "Love Man" super-hero persona, and Justin will bring helium-filled balloons to offer up a memorable high-pitched compliment to both ladies. A man named Shawn B. will whisper in Kaitlyn's ear, telling her that he's only competing for her heart.

Josh, a "handsome" law student, will strip for the ladies, while Chris, "a dentist with a sweet tooth," will drive up in a car shaped like a cupcake. If that couldn't be topped, Shawn E. pulls up to the mansion in a hot tub car.

Once all the suitors arrive, Britt and Kaitlyn will enjoy the night's cocktail party and attempt to get to know the guys better.

Britt and Brady will talk like they are old friends, but then Tanner teases her for crying a lot. One man will suddenly change his mind about which Bachelorette he wants to support. And Ryan M. will get himself into trouble, sparking such a chaotic incident that host Chris Harrison will be forced to intervene.

The 25 men will then vote for whether they'd like to continue dating Kaitlyn or Britt. Once the results are revealed, the men cheer and applaud.

It then becomes time for the Season 11's official Bachelorette to hand out the coveted first impression rose. After the first Rose Ceremony, Kaitlyn or Britt will have 19 men remaining.
