Celebrity Game Face Season 2 Release Date, Contestants, And More Information

"Celebrity Game Face" was the show we didn't know we needed during the pandemic. It reminded viewers that the stars were stuck at home like the rest of us, and they managed to make it look like loads of fun. Necessity breeds invention, and the new, socially distanced game show format was born last summer in the wake of Hollywood's unprecedented production shutdown.

The E! show was initially conceived as a one-off television event. Comedy giant Kevin Hart hosted it from the comfort of his own couch, and his wife, Eniko, served as his co-host. The "Jumanji: The Next Level" star provided viewers with some much-needed laughs by exchanging virtual banter with the show's contestants and presenting them with wacky challenges to complete, like saying words with their mouths stuffed with marshmallows and slurping up spaghetti using tiny plastic hands. The first contestants — who were also filming from their homes — were "Community" star Joel McHale and wife Sarah Williams, "Modern Family" actor Sarah Hyland and her fiance Wells Adams, and "America's Got Talent" host Terry Crews and his wife Rebecca King-Crews.

The winners were presented with a golden "Hart of a Champion" trophy shaped like a baby Hart — complete with facial hair — and a donation to a charity of their choosing. E! ordered additional episodes of the show, and it was such a hit that it was picked up for a second season. We've got all the details about it below.

Kevin Hart will be back to host the second season of "Celebrity Game Face." The comedian also produces the show, and his star power probably comes in handy when he's trying to find famous folk who are willing to risk humiliating themselves for the sake of entertainment. The stars getting their game faces on this time around include rappers Nelly, T-Pain, and Ludacris, who will surely "lick" the competition if there's a lollipop challenge.

While Hart is usually the show's comedy MVP, he'll have some competition when "Saturday Night Live" cast member Kenan Thompson, comedian Wanda Sykes, and "In Living Color" star Damon Wayans are contestants. "This Is Us" co-stars Chrissy Metz and Susan Kelechi Watson will both get the opportunity to show off their sillier sides, while "The Good Place" actor D'Arcy Carden will see if she's good enough to take down her A-list adversaries. 

Jason Biggs will compete with his wife Jenny Mollen in an episode airing ahead of his own game show, so even if he loses, getting a free plug will be a pretty sweet consolation prize. Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Camille Kostek are another funny power couple who will have a chance at taking home a "magnificent" painting of Hart. And these are just a handful of the singers, actors, and athletes that viewers will see this season.
