Who Are the Final Three?
Actor Ross King, best known for his lead role in the period drama Outlander, joins the dance floor after a string of screen successes. While he's no stranger to performance, he admits that mastering Latin steps will be his biggest challenge yet.
Former England women’s football captain Karen Carney swaps the pitch for the studio. Her athletic background gives her a natural rhythm, but she jokes that the glittering costumes might be a tougher fit than a training kit.
Kristian Nairn, who played the Night King in Game of Thrones, brings a dramatic flair to the cast. Known for his towering height and deep voice, he says he hopes his presence will add a theatrical edge to the choreography.
What This Means for Strictly 2025
The trio rounds out a line‑up that already includes a mix of singers, athletes and reality TV personalities. Their addition signals the show’s continued push for diversity, blending acting chops, sporting discipline and pop‑culture icons.
Fans are already speculating about potential professional partners. Some think Ross could pair with a seasoned Latin specialist to balance his theatrical strengths, while Karen might be matched with a Latin expert who can harness her stamina. Kristian’s height has sparked rumors of a ballroom partner who can complement his stature without being dwarfed.
Production insiders confirm that rehearsals for the 23rd series will kick off in early autumn, with the first live show slated for September. A newly released teaser hints at a “twist” to the classic format, though details remain under wraps.
Social media buzz is high. Trending hashtags like #Strictly2025 and #RossKingDance have already gathered thousands of mentions, indicating strong viewer interest before the first episode even airs.
With the announcement, the network hopes to keep the momentum going, ensuring that Strictly Come Dancing 2025 starts the season with a splash of excitement and fresh storylines.
