‘Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro’ Trailer Will Blow Your Mind
Get ready for a ballroom battle like you've never seen before.
The world's top performers are going head-to-head to compete for a coveted spot among Dancing With the Stars' season 35 pros—and E! News has the exclusive first look at the jaw-dropping talents heading to the dance floor.
"We have searched the world of ballroom to find 12 of the best dancers from across the globe," host Robert Irwin announces in E!'s exclusive trailer for ABC and Hulu's new series Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro, premiering July 13. "The dancers will face demanding challenges from our incredible judges."
Joining the season 34 winner on the search for DWTS' next pro are judges Mark Ballas and his mom, longtime Strictly Come Dancing panelist Shirley Ballas, who will share their expertise as the contestants demonstrate their skills in salsa, samba and beyond.
And, as the June 25 preview teases, these dancers—including pro Ezra Sosa’s sister Stephani Sosa—will do anything to stand out among the crowd.
"I'm doing this for the little girls that look like me," Stephani says in the preview, while fellow competitor Allen Genkin adds, "My mom's dream was for me to become a pro on Dancing With the Stars."
But the journey to the ballroom won't be a walk—or should we say waltz?—in the park, with Robert noting that the rising stars "will be pushed to the extreme" as they try to out-dance each other to win a spot on season 35.
Each week, DWTS veterans like Derek Hough, Jenna Johnson, Witney Carson, Brandon Armstrong, Britt Stewart and Daniella Karagach will help Mark and Shirley narrow down the competition as the up-and-comers navigate injuries, big personalities and back-breaking choreography.

Ultimately, only one hopeful will have the moves to make it as a full-time pro—and it certainly sounds like the judges found their next star.
As Shirley tells one mystery hopeful in the preview, "You are the best I've ever seen in 66 countries."
Mark adds, "You say you've been working your whole life for this. I can tell."
See what's to come—including the drama of 12 dancers living in one house together—in the trailer above. And keep reading to meet the men and women vying for the coveted season 35 spot.
Dancing With the Stars: The Next Pro premieres July 13 at 8 p.m. on ABC, with episodes available the next day on Disney+ and Hulu.
