"Mike [White] is official. They got him," a source told The U.S. Sun. "It was really important for Mike to do it.

He loves this show more than people will ever understand, and this is probably his last shot to return. "He's admitted to throwing the final tribal council when he was on 37 because he felt bad taking the money. "He's no holds barred this time, he's going at it full force and wants to be the sole Survivor more than anything."

The insider also revealed the cast and crew left for Fiji on Tuesday, and Season 50 is "now filming." "The Season 50 contestants were all flown to Los Angeles this week," the source alleged. "Their phones were taken from them, and they're taking stricter precautions to not have any leaks."

The source also claimed casting this season has been a "bloodbath." "There's some bad blood between the producers and the contestants who got cut last minute and poured their heart, sweat, and tears into basically a year-long casting process that ended up being for nothing," the insider claimed.

The cast includes returning stars Jenna Lewis Dougherty, Colby Donaldson, Stephenie Lagrossa Kendrick, Cirie Fields, Ozzy Lusth, Benjamin "Coach" Wade, Aubry Bracco, Chrissy Hofbeck, Christian Hubicki, Angelina Keeley, Rick Devens, Jonathan Young, and Emily Flippen, he said on CBS Mornings. The season will also feature stars Dee Valladares, Tiffany Nicole Ervin, Q, Charlie Davis, Genevieve Mushaluk, Kamilla Karthigesu, Joe Hunter, Kyle Fraser, and, of course, Mike. But one former fan favorite won't be joining the cast despite viewers begging for her return.

Carolyn Wiger is reportedly "furious" she didn't make the cut for Survivor 50 and feels the producers are "punishing" her for appearing on the most recent season of The Traitors.

“I had to stay for a week at the Sheraton Universal, which I think was the hardest part of the process for me," he told IndieWire. "Because I was stuck on the Universal lot for five days on lockdown." "I just had to go through the same process as everyone else—all the auditions and the different cuts,” he said.

Since Mike's appearance on the show, he has directed the successful White Lotus series on Max. The series has just finished airing its third season, which was set in Thailand and featured plenty of controversial storylines, on Max. 7 Dee Valladares from Season 45 will also appear on Survivor 50 Credit: Getty 7 Joe Hunter from Season 48 is also coming back for Survivor 50 Credit: Getty 7 Stephenie Lagrossa from Season 10 will return to the small screen Credit: Getty CAROLYN'S FURY This comes after we revealed that Carolyn Wiger was reportedly cut from Survivor 50.

"Carolyn was told she had a spot on Survivor 50 but now it's not happening," a source told The U.S. Sun. “It wasn't signed yet but they verbally told her she would be on but just cut her. Without warning.” The insider added that Carolyn’s “blood is boiling” and she is “furious” about the decision.

“She’s upset mainly because of the reason – she fully believes the producers have a chip on their shoulder about Survivor players who go on to do other shows. “I mean, Jeff [Probst] himself has even said that he has a problem with it. She feels she was done dirty and feels the producers need to get over it, people go on other shows all the time, it's how they make money.

“They cannot be mad at their contestants for staying employed, it's f**king ridiculous. “Carolyn wasn't the only one cut. A few other players from more recent seasons also found out they didn't make it.” Drug counselor and life coach Carolyn hinted at her anger toward the CBS team in an Instagram Story she posted on Wednesday night.

“Schedule just cleared up for the Summer. Does anyone have a contact at Deal or No Deal Island or Survivor Australia,” she wrote over a clip of her from The Traitors. She appeared to be taking another stab at the show as the 50th season of Survivor will be filming this summer.
