Special Forces: World's Toughest Test Season 4 Cast Includes Jussie Smollett, Teresa Giudice — Watch Trailer

Six years after he was fired from Fox's Empire for being charged with making a false police report and fabricating a homophobic attack, Jussie Smollett is returning to the network as a contestant on Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, TVLine has learned. And now, we have our first look at the new season via the just-released trailer above.

Of course, Smollett isn't the only new Special Forces cast member who's used to having their name in headlines, for better or worse. Other Season 4 additions include Kody Brown (Sister Wives), Brittany Cartwright (The Valley), Jessie James and Eric Decker (Eric & Jessie: Game On), Gia Giudice (Next Gen NYC), Teresa Giudice (The Real Housewives of New Jersey), supermodel Chanel Iman, Eva Marcille (All the Queen's Men) and Ravi V. Patel (Animal Control).

There are also several professional athletes on the roster, including Randall Cobb, Andrew East, Shawn Johnson East, Nick Young, Johnny Manziel and Christie Pearce Rampone, as well as influencers Mark Estes and Brianna LaPaglia.

Season 4 will find the recruits training in Morocco, with one major twist being thrown into the mix: "some recruits will arrive in pairs consisting of spouses and family members, but will compete individually," reads the official logline. "All recruits must learn the art of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable as they are faced with training challenges across the country's expansive desert terrain. ... These celebrities, who are so used to being in the spotlight, will quickly learn the meaning of 'no guts, no glory' — and no glam."
