Colton Underwood is officially out of retirement and diving back into the world of reality television—cloaks, sabotage, and side-eyes included.
The former Bachelor star has joined the upcoming fourth season of The Traitors on Peacock, and fans are already sharpening their metaphorical knives in anticipation.
In a cheeky Instagram post, Colton teased the comeback with the caption: “coming out of retirement for this one 😜 — @peacock Season 4 of #TheTraitorsUS coming soon.”
Currently filming in the misty Scottish highlands, The Traitors brings together a star-studded cast for a high-stakes game of trust and betrayal, set in a moody castle with all the dramatic flair we could ask for.
The Emmy-nominated and eternally fabulous Alan Cumming returns as host—cape likely in tow—leading contestants through missions, suspicion, and drama as they attempt to sniff out the “traitors” among them.
Joining Colton this season is an all-star lineup including Mark Ballas, Stephen Colletti, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Ron Funches, Kristen Kish, Johnny Weir, and Monét X Change, along with other iconic names like Lisa Rinna and Dorinda Medley.
Since coming out publicly in 2021, Colton has been on a very different kind of journey—one of self-discovery, visibility, and authenticity.
He shared his story on the Netflix docuseries Coming Out Colton, offering viewers an intimate look at his personal transformation.
In 2023, he married political strategist Jordan C. Brown in a joyful celebration of queer love, and in 2024, the couple welcomed their first child.
Colton is now fully embracing what fans are lovingly calling his “Hot Daddy Era.”
And what better way to lean into that vibe than by donning a dramatic cloak and stepping into a castle full of secrets and strategy?
Whether he’s playing the loyal knight or the ultimate traitor, Colton’s presence is guaranteed to bring intrigue, heart, and a little extra thirst to the season.
The Traitors Season 4 is still in production, but if this cast is any indication, betrayal has never looked so stylish.
One thing’s for sure: the drama will be fierce, the fashion will be castle-core, and Colton Underwood is absolutely here to slay—sword not included (we think).
