‘Drag Den Philippines’ Season 2 cast revealed
Let the Dragdagulan begin!
Streaming giant Prime Video has finally unveiled the cast of hit Filipino reality drag competition Drag Den with Manila Luzon Season Two: Retribution. This is the first local show renewal for the worldwide streamer in Southeast Asia.
The second season, which consists of eight episodes, promises to be "even bigger, with a new den, new set of rules, and a new roster of judges."
The futuristic-themed teaser for the upcoming installment shows the return of "Drag Lord" Manila Luzon as the host and executive producer, together with Miss Grand International 2016 first runner-up Nicole Cordoves and TikTok star Sassa Gurl as the show's "Drag Dealer" and "Drag Runner," respectively.
Aside from the showstopping hosts, the new season will also star ten sickening queens such as Deja, Margaux Rita, Elvira B, Feyvah Fatalé, Maria Lava, Mrs. Tan, Moi, Marlyn, Jean Vogue, and Russia Fox, hoping to win the highly coveted "Drag Supreme" title.
Drag Den Philippines, the first of its kind in the Philippines, first premiered on Prime Video on Dec. 8, 2022.
Naia, also known as Brian Black, was named the show's first winner. Manila crowned her during a watch party in Taguig City held on Jan. 26.
In the final episode, Naia competed against two other finalists, Maria Cristina and Shewarma, in three segments: swimsuit, evening gown, and national costume. They also battled it out in a lip-sync battle to Kilometro by Sarah Geronimo.
Drag Den with Manila Luzon Season Two: Retribution is produced by CS Studios, created and directed by Rod Singh and Antoinette Jadaone of Project 8 Projects. It's set to be launched on Jan. 18, 2024 with a new episode every week.
