The program starts on March 28 and this season Anders Lundin is back as the host. But the one who meets the contestants on Caramoan in the Philippines is Anna Brolin, who is substituting for Lundin at the beginning of the season.
"It will be a fast start and drama at once when they together will divide into two teams and then throw themselves into incredibly tough challenges", says Brolin in a press release.
New for this year is the theme physics versus logic, where one team has bet on physical strength while the other team sees the brain as its sharpest weapon. Three participants are also making a comeback in Gränslandet: Sara Mölldal, Amanda Eliasson, and Pascal Mazza Ramsby.
"Before each season, I wonder if it will be possible to renew and develop the program further. Seven weeks later, I am always equally surprised: Yes, damn it! It worked", says Anders Lundin.
