The new Dancing with the Stars cast is coming into focus.
The early roster has a decidedly athletic tinge, with Olympics gymnast Simone Biles, figure skater Nancy Kerrigan and actor Mr. T, a former wrestler, confirmed to perform on the ABC dance competition, according to a source with knowledge of casting decisions. ABC declined to comment or confirm any competitors.
Mr. T, known for his larger-than-life personality and fondness for gold jewelry, gained acting fame for such roles as Clubber Lang in 1982’s Rocky III and B.A. Baracus in the 1980s TV series, The A-Team.
The full cast, including celebrity dancers and their pro partners, will be announced Wednesday on ABC’s Good Morning America. Season 24 will premiere on March 20 (ABC, 8 ET/PT).
