Do you hear that? Is that the sound of tap dancing in the distance? Or maybe it’s bars from a romantic Viennese waltz? 

Correct answer: All of the above, because it’s the sound of Dancing With the Stars coming back this fall. 

We have gone three entire months without DWTS on our TV screens, but fans needn’t fear, because season 27 returns to ABC on Sept. 24. But before the pros lace up their dancing shoes, there’s one final point to sort out: The cast.

The DWTS cast has always given viewers a feel for the season to come, hinting at possibilities of champions, dancing duds, and drama (of course), and this season is no different. The newcomers present a strong list of contenders, from Olympians to Harry Potter actors, and reality TV stars to country singers.
