Skating With the Stars is seeking to tap into the success of its dancing equivalent on ABC with the network unveiling the cast list on Wednesday.
The show is set to air for six weeks, starting Nov. 22, and will have six celebrities onboard, according to CNN.
The six are former Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil, Real Housewives star Bethenny Frankel, Blade Runner actress Sean Young, freestyle skiing gold medalist Jonny Moseley, All My Children soap opera actress Rebecca Budig, and Disney Channel show Sonny with a Chance actor Brandon Mychal Smith.
Like Dancing With the Stars the six contestants will team up with professional ice skaters to compete for the top spot.
“For Dancing, I can get an 80-year-old who isn’t in shape and doesn’t know how to dance,” producer Deena Katz told USA Today. “With Skating, they have to already know some moves.”
