Wait, Is ‘Claim to Fame’ Returning for Season 4?

Almost three dozen celebrity relatives have made their way through that idyllic Hollywood mansion on Claim to Fame‘s first three seasons, but is the party over?

ABC revealed its official list of summer 2025 premiere dates, and the reality competition series was notably missing, despite the prior three seasons each having summer premieres in June and July. The lack of news on the subject has left some fans wondering whether the show will return or not.

Casting for a new season of ABC’s hit reality competition series opened to the public in August 2024, which indicated that fans could expect the show to continue on for Season 4. However, the network has not officially renewed the show just yet, let alone set a premiere. Here’s everything we know so far.

Is Claim to Fame Season 4 happening?

ABC has not announced a renewal for Claim to Fame Season 4, but the show’s production company, Kinetic Content, opened up an application portal for potential castmembers in late summer 2024, which indicated that the production company was very likely to produce another run. So, while it’s not official, chances are, Claim to Fame Season 4 will happen; we just don’t know when yet.

When will Claim to Fame Season 4 premiere?

Nothing’s official yet. Claim to Fame has traditionally been a summer show. (Season 1 premiered on July 11, 2022, Season 2 followed on June 26, 2023, and Season 3 premiered on July 10, 2024.) However, that may not be the case this time. ABC’s summer 2025 premiere dates list did not include Claim to Fame. All premiere dates and network schedules are subject to change, though, so we’ll have to wait and see whether ABC adds it to the late summer schedule after all.

Who will host Claim to Fame Season 4?

Again, there’s nothing official to report at this time. However, given their particular charms at co-hosting the first three seasons, it seems unlikely Kevin and Franklin Jonas wouldn’t return to emcee the next round. As Kinetic Content boss Eric Detwiler previously told TV Insider of their selection, “You’ve got somebody like Kevin Jonas, who’s a big name, and then you’ve got Franklin, who’s the youngest brother trying to find his own place in the spotlight. It just mirrored the show’s concept so well… they also have a genuine excitement and curiosity [about the show].”

Who will compete in Claim to Fame Season 4?

No cast list for Claim to Fame Season 4 is currently available, but the show has previously featured 11 to 12 relatives of celebrities who are actors, athletes, musicians, and other notable figures. And once their names are revealed, finding out who their famous relatives are is half the fun of watching the show!

“Every season, we’ve tried to best ourselves in terms of the level of iconic celebrity relatives that we can book for the show, but it really all starts with thinking about what are the categories we want to explore each season. Who are the people that are at the top of the game in [their respective] categories?” Detwiler said of the casting process.

What is at stake in Claim to Fame Season 4?

For the last three seasons, contestants have worked for not just their own piece of the spotlight but for the chance of winning the season’s cash prize of $100,000. We’ll have to wait and see whether Season 4 raises the ante at all for its crop of contestants.

What will happen in Claim to Fame Season 4?

Though no official details are available just yet, the show has a few traditions that we can probably expect to see happen in Season 4, including several repeat challenges, like “Two Truths and a Lie,” the talent show, the game of “Telephone,” and the interrogation room, to name a few. And there’s no reason to doubt that there will be a snazzy new Clue Wall for the new contestants (and fans alike) to mull over.
