Check out the full line-up below:
Ferne McCann
Age: 34
Best known for: Reality TV star and presenter
Ferne said: "I'm so excited, it's going to be a huge challenge but I'm excited for the glitz and glamour of the show."
Mollie Pearce
Age: 22
Best known for: The Traitors star
Mollie said: "It will be fun, I want to challenge myself, I'm ready for the challenge."
Sir Steve Redgrave
Age: 62
Best known for: Olympic rowing legend
Sir Steve said: "It's like going back to being an athlete again, I've been competing most of my life."
Sam Aston
Age: 31
Best known for: Coronation Street actor
Sam said: "I'm nervous but excited to get going. It's going to be nice for the public to see me for me rather than Chesney."
Charlie Brooks
Age: 43
Best known for: Actress
Charlie said: "I'm going to embrace the spray tan. All I want to do is enjoy it and try not to break my leg."
Josh Jones
Age: 30
Best known for: Comedian
Josh said: "I've not got any skating experience whatsoever, I did it once for a date years ago and I wasn't very good, I was holding onto the railings the entire time and we aren't together now. My dancing isn't great either, for a gay man I have no rhythm, I struggle to clap along to a beat so this will be fun."
Anton Ferdinand
Age: 39
Best known for: Former footballer
Anton said: "I decided to sign up for the show because it's a challenge first and foremost. I'm in a new phase of my life since retiring from football and the one of the things I've missed about playing is the structure it gives you. Dancing On Ice will give me that focus but I'm also doing it for my daughter because she loves dance and performing arts. My son always had my football to shout about so this will give my daughter and me something to share."
Chelsee Healey
Age: 36
Best known for: Actress
Chelsee said: : "I'm ready, I'm good to go, let's go! I've got a bit of rhythm but skating on ice is completely different, I'm excited. I'm most excited for the live shows, getting to perform live every week will give me a buzz, I can't wait for the live shows."
Dan Edgar
Age: 34
Best known for: TOWIE star
Dan said: "I'm looking forward to it but the thought of the live shows and performing is very real. I like to think I can ice skate a little bit but I'm a terrible dancer so that bit is going to need some work."
Chris Taylor
Age: 34
Best known for: Love Island star
Chris said: "I'm somewhere between absolutely terrified and very excited and I keep flitting between the two quite aggressively throughout the day. I've not even started stretching yet, I need to. I can skate but my dad got the snakehips, unfortunately I didn't inherit that genetically from him."
Michaela Strachan
Age: 58
Best known for: TV host
Michaela said: "It's going to be a big challenge the last time I was on ice was four years ago when I took the kids, I'm not one of those people who holds onto the sides I guess because I was trained as a dancer I've got a bit of balance. I've always been one of those people who says yes, I'll do that."
Dame Sarah Storey
Age: 46
Best known for: Paralympic grand champion
