It's time to cha-cha back to the ballroom (or waltz if you prefer to take things a bit slower).

*Dancing With the Stars *is readying for its return, and that means announcing the full cast of contestants, as well as their pro partners. *Good Morning America *revealed the full lineup of famous faces on Wednesday morning.

Nine additional celebrities are joining the previously announced Robert Irwin, Alix Earle, Whitney Leavitt, and Jenn Affleck. The list includes major '90s nostalgia hits, a talk-show favorite, and a 2024 Olympian who has something to prove.

Just some of the notable names joining the season 34 cast are *The Parent Trap *actress Elaine Hendrix, *Boy Meets World *star Danielle Fishel, Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles, and former *Conan*announcer and collaborator, Andy Richter.

The cast will also welcome a new pro dancer to the mix this season after promoting Ezra Sosa to pro status last season. Jan Ravnik, best known for his prominent role as a backup dancer on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, will be showing off his moves in the ballroom.

Host Alfonso Ribeiro and cohost Julianne Hough will return for the season, and Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough will return to the judges' table.

*Dancing With the Stars* taps its way back into living rooms on Tuesday, Sept. 16, airing live at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+, and streaming the next day on Hulu. Check out the full cast and their professional dance partners below.

Whitney Leavitt, who has the ignominious fate of often receiving the "villain cut" on *The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, *is joining her costar Jenn Affleck on season 34, as was announced on the season 2 *Secret Lives *reunion special. She will be dancing with Mark Ballas.

Danielle Fishel

Scott Hoying is probably more familiar to audiences' ears than their eyes as the baritone of acapella quintet Pentatonix. Hoying will dance with Rylee Arnold.

Hilaria Baldwin

As the younger brother of Zac Efron, Dylan Efron has a lot of (high school) musical choreography to live up to. Efron is an influencer and most recently, he appeared on season 3 of *The Traitors *(and was declared one of the winners). He is partnered with Daniella Karagach.

Jordan Chiles

The ballroom loves an Olympian, and season 34 welcomes gymnast Jordan Chiles, who, along with her teammates, won the Team Gold at the 2024 Olympics. Chiles also was awarded a bronze medal in the floor exercise event, which subsequently became a point of legal contention that Chiles has since appealed. Let's hope the *DWTS *play more fair when they evaluate her moves with pro partner Ezra Sosa.

Though she's also featured on the *Dynasty *reboot, recently acted opposite Lohan in *Freakier Friday, *and more. Hendrix will show off her moves with partner Alan Bersten. (And we fully expect real-life bestie and *Abbott Elementary* star Lisa Ann Walters to show up to cheer her on with some ABC synergy).
