Mike White and Sydney Sweeney Want to Compete on ‘The Amazing Race’ Together

In an exciting twist, The White Lotus stars Mike White and Sydney Sweeney have expressed interest in teaming up for The Amazing Race. The duo, who captivated audiences in HBO’s hit series, dropped the news in a recent interview, sparking speculation about their potential as competitors on the globetrotting reality show.

Why Mike White and Sydney Sweeney Could Dominate The Amazing Race

Mike White, the creator of The White Lotus and a Survivor alum, and Sydney Sweeney, known for Euphoria and Anyone But You, revealed their mutual enthusiasm for the show on a podcast. White, who competed on Survivor: David vs. Goliath, joked about his competitive nature, while Sweeney admitted she’s a longtime fan.

“I think we’d be a great team,” Sweeney said. “Mike’s strategic, I’m energetic, and we both love traveling. Plus, after The White Lotus, we’ve already dealt with chaos—what’s a little more?” White added, “Sydney’s fearless. I’d trust her to navigate us through any country. Just don’t ask me to bungee jump.”

Fan Reactions and the Push for CBS to Cast Them

Social media erupted after their comments, with tweets like “Mike and Sydney on Amazing Race would be TV gold!” and “CBS, make this happen ASAP!” gaining traction. While producers haven’t confirmed anything, insiders suggest casting discussions may be underway due to overwhelming fan demand.

Could Celebrity Teams Revitalize The Amazing Race?

Though The Amazing Race typically features everyday contestants, celebrity pairings like Survivor’s Rob & Amber and Olympians Shawn Johnson and Andrew East have brought fresh appeal. White’s reality TV experience and Sweeney’s star power could attract new viewers while delighting longtime fans.

“I know how to play the game,” White said. “But The Amazing Race is a whole different beast. It’s about outsmarting and outpacing everyone.”

Will Scheduling Conflicts Get in the Way?

Sweeney’s busy slate (Madame Web, Barbarella) could pose a challenge, but White hinted they’re serious about making it work. “We’ve talked about it,” he said. “If the timing aligns, we’re in.”

The Bottom Line

Whether this dynamic duo races across the world or not, their chemistry and competitive edge make them ideal candidates. Fans will have to wait—or start a petition—to see if CBS greenlights the idea.
