\n\tSPOILER ALERT:\u00a0This story contains spoilers from the Wednesday, December 17 finale of \u201cSurvivor<\/a>\u201d Season 49.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s officially \u201cSurvivor\u201d 50 season! The first trailer for \u201cIn the Hands of the Fans,\u201d the upcoming season featuring some of the best to ever play the game, debuted on Wednesday night following the end of Season 49.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trailer begins in slow motion, showing some of the best players of all time<\/a> from \u201cSurvivor\u201d boarding a private plane for the epic 50th season. Some are quite recognizable even without showing their faces \u2014 like Ozzy Lusth and Jonathan Young. The first face shown is Colby Donaldson.<\/p>\n

\n\tProbst tells the former players, \u201cWe chose you to represent 25 years of the greatest adventure on televison. It\u2019s a big honor, and the only thing we want in exchange for giving you the spot\u2026 is everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMike White<\/a> has the best teaser (of course!), adding, \u201cIt feels a little like a high school reunion meets massacre.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThere\u2019s also some surprise guests \u2014\u00a0Zac Brown and Jimmy \u201cMrBeast\u201d Donaldson pop up in the trailer, with Beast carrying his famous briefcase. Plus, his coin, encrusted with \u201cBeast Games\u201d and \u201cSurvivor,\u201d can be seen earlier in the video. There\u2019s also \u201ca Billie Eilish boomerang idol\u201d mixed in, Rick Devens reveals, and Christian Hubicki adds, \u201cJimmy Fallon may decide my fate in this game.\u201d The two Season 49 players are revealed to be finalists Savannah Louie and Rizo Velovic. <\/p>\n

\n\tAlthough the most exciting part may be the fact that Probst is shown seemingly competing in the trailer.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/p>\n

\n\tBefore the trailer aired, Season 49 came to a dramatic end; first Savannah became the fifth woman to win four individual immunity challenges in one season, beating the finalists Sage Ahrens-Nichols, Sophi Balerdi, Kristina Mills and Rizo in the second-to-last immunity challenge. She chose to bring Sophi with her to the sanctuary.<\/p>\n

\n\tSophi took home the last (and her first!) necklace next and, despite having a final three deal with Rizo and Savannah, she didn\u2019t want to have any discussions with anyone and told everyone to practice fire. Savannah was upset; and Rizo said he wanted Savannah if he was making fire. Ultimately, Sophi chose to bring Sage to the end. Ultimately, Savannah beat Rizo in the fire-making challenge, then beat both Sophi and Sage and was awarded the $1 million prize.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s important to note that this marked only the third time the show has had a final three made up of only women \u2014 and it\u2019s been 20 seasons since it last happened. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSurvivor\u201d 50 debuts on CBS Wednesday, Feb. 25, at 8 p.m. ET. To celebrate the season, CBS will air past epsiodes from across the series\u2019 history, Monday through Friday, beginning Feb. 9.<\/p>\n
