Dancing With The Stars announces Season 35 cast: Julia Stiles, Jenna Dewan and more to hit the ballroom floor
ABC has announced the celebrity cast for Season 35 of 'Dancing With The Stars,' featuring stars like Julia Stiles and Jenna Dewan. The show is set to premiere on September 15 and 16 on Disney+ in Canada.
Why it matters
Reality competition shows remain a significant driver of viewership and social media engagement in the entertainment industry.
The cast of Season 35 of Dancing With The Stars was officially announced on Wednesday, with a fresh lineup of familiar faces trading their famous day jobs for sequins, choreography and a shot at the mirror-ball trophy.
Before Wednesday's announcement on Good Morning America , Maura Higgins, Ciara Miller, Jackson Olson and Guillermo Rodriguez had already been confirmed as part of the cast.
Twelve more stars were then named to the roster on the ABC morning show — including Julia Stiles, trading in her Save The Last Dance flats and 10 Things I Hate About You acting chops for the cha-cha-cha, and The Rookie star Jenna Dewan.
