'The Circle' Season 4 Cast: Your Guide
Netflix's hit reality show The Circle has returned for a new season, with a stacked cast of players competing to be the most popular person in the show's closed social media channel. This time around, the competitors in the Circle's isolated apartments all come with some sort of social media experience, from content creators with millions of followers to a familiar face that's been seen on the show before.
In case you haven't caught up since the season premiered on May 4, there's already been a big surprise. The first episodes of this season saw Spice Girls Mel B and Emma Bunton dropping into the show as catfish with a specific mission to go undetected among the cast. The May 11 drop shows that the pop stars were successful, increasing this season's prize money to $150,000, which will go to one lucky winner.
Below, meet all the players from The Circle season 4.
Frank
28-year-old Frank Grimsley works as a school social worker by day, and a body-positive content creator in his free time. He has an Instagram worthy of the show's first Top Influencer, filled with fashion shots and snaps from trips around the world. The licensed therapist also has a great sense of humor, even sharing his class's reaction to him appearing on TV.

She also runs social media for the comedy YouTube channel Smosh, which should help her Circle game.

Alex a.k.a. Nathan
28-year-old Alex Brizard is the season's catfish strategist, and like others this season he has tons of experience in social media. The commercial banker from Scottsdale and self-described "Reality TV Fanboy turned Reality TV Player" spends his free time co-hosting the podcast Two Dudes Watch Cartoons, live-streaming Pokémon games on Twitch.

Trevor a.k.a. Imani
35-year-old Trevor St. Agathe comes into The Circle with an advantage: he's already won the whole game, in a way. The strength and conditioning coach is none other than season 2 winner Delessa St. Agathe's husband. Since he can't come in as himself, the father of two plays as Imani, using Delessa's friends photos and creating a new personality and backstory.
