The Challenge Season 41 Will Debut in the Summer on MTV

It’s official — MTV has picked up The Challenge for a 41st season.

If you follow this site, or any of the rumors, this isn’t a surprise. We all know season 41 filmed earlier this year, but executive producer Julie Pizzi announced the forthcoming season at Variety‘s FYC TV Fest in NYC.

CT, Leroy, Aneesa, and (for some reason) Rachel joined the panel for the announcement. While the official cast and theme weren’t announced (psst… we know this info), it was revealed that CT, Leroy, and Aneesa will be part of it.

We really didn’t learn anything new here, but this is proof that more info on season 41 is on the horizon. I’d guess the season will follow a similar timeline to Spies, Lies and Allies or Battle of the Eras, which means an early August premiere. Let’s just hope it finishes airing before 2026.

Julie Pizzi also said the show has exciting things planned for the future. Hopefully, this isn’t just referring to season 41, because we haven’t forgotten about All Stars.
