I’m A Celebrity lineup ‘one of the best casts ever’ tease Ant and Dec

Ant and Dec say this year’s I’m A Celebrity will feature one of the best casts ever.

The Geordie duo will reunite as hosts of the ITV series for 2019 after Ant stepped down from last year’s season.

Speaking ahead of the launch on Sunday night, Ant said: “I’m very, very excited about getting back on the show, I missed it last year.

“It’s a brilliant place to work, a brilliant part of the world to be in and I’m back with my best friend. I can’t wait.”

Dec added to the Daily Mail newspaper: “This is our 19th series. We’ve been privy to a few of the names that are taking part this year.

“We’re very excited as it’s one of the best casts ever.”

So who can we expect to see in the jungle?

Although no contestants have been officially announced by ITV Just yet, names linked to the series are football pundit Ian Wright, who has reportedly been offered a ‘six figure’ deal, Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway, Rugby star James Haskell and singer Myles Stephenson of X Factor winning boy group Rak-Su.

Also rumoured are Comedian Andrew Maxwell, Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle, Capital FM host Roman Kemp, Radio 1 DJ Adele Roberts and former EastEnders actress Jacqueline Jossa.

Completing the rumoured cast are Coronation Street actor Andrew Whyment, who plays Kirk Sutherland in the hit soap, and Caitlyn Jenner, American Olympian turned TV personality.

I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here will start at 9PM on Sunday, November 17.

The show will then continue nightly as usual, typically airing for around three weeks.

Alongside the main show, Extra Camp will return on ITV2 with a new hosting line up.

Former I’m A Celebrity campers Adam Thomas and Emily Atack will be taking over from Joe Swash and Scarlett Moffatt, joining returning Joel Dommett.
