'Survivor' Season 32 Spoilers: Teased to Have 'Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty' Theme

"Survivor: Second Chance" Season 31 just concluded with Jeremy Collins as the winner. But fans are already excited for the next season.

"Survivor" Season 32 will feature new contestants and will introduce new faces to the show, unlike the previous season which featured past contestants.

The upcoming season will revisit the "Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty" theme from Season 28, featuring 18 new castaways. The contestants will be divided into three tribes, Totang, Chanloh, and Gondol, who will wear red, blue and yellow, respectively, HNGN reported.

Since the "Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty" was well received by the viewers due to the eclectic mix of people, it is once again used for Season 32.

"It was during casting," host Jeff Probst said according to Entertainment Weekly. "As we started seeing people, it became obvious we had another really clear division of brains, brawn and beauty. For instance, a woman who scored a perfect SAT, a former NBA bruiser, and a Vietnamese gay gardener who loves all living things."

Season 32 "Survivor: Kaoh Rong" was filmed between March and May 2015 in Cambodia prior to the filming of "Survivor: Second Chance" which is also filmed in the same area.

"You would think it would be due to the time delay, but we were actually very happy with this season and have been excited to bring it to our fans," Probst explained. "It is very different from 'Second Chance.' And because BvBvB II was shot first, the players didn't see the evolution of voting blocs or any of the twists that happened in 'Second Chance,' so it really is a completely different season."

With the weather in Cambodia, challenges were done in "extremely hot" conditions. A preview video of the upcoming season revealed that there are many serious medical emergencies.

During the preview video for the upcoming season, which they aired during last night's finale, it looked as though there were a lot of serious and scary medical emergencies.

"We had three evacuations, the most ever in a season," said executive producer Mark Burnett, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "It was the humidity, cuts, people getting infected and then trying so hard on the challenges. But we tend to show most things. As a producer you get worried, but Jeff Probst runs the show, and I know if my phone's ringing at 3 or 4 in the a.m., it's Jeff and it's not a good phone call."

"Survivor Kaoh Rong: Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty" will debut on Feb. 17, 2016 on CBS.
