One of the biggest updates is the hosting shift. Ryan Seacrest will officially take over as host of ‘Celebrity Wheel of Fortune’, marking his first season in this role. He’ll be joining longtime co-host Vanna White, who continues to hold down the iconic puzzle board.

This season promises the same mix of celebrity appearances, witty banter, and high-stakes spins that have made it such a draw since day one.

Alongside the premiere of the celebrity edition, the flagship ‘Wheel of Fortune’ will also return with new episodes beginning Monday, September 8, 2025. Both shows will be led by the Ryan and Vanna duo, a lineup that fans are eager to see in action.
