But who will be heading for the dancefloor this year? We look at the names that have come up so far.

Who is rumoured to be doing Strictly 2022?

Andrew Garfield

The Hollywood star has just played the Oscar-nominated lead in Tick Tick…Boom!, but rather than searching for another Academy Award-worthy role, he’s eying a different trophy.

Appearing on The Graham Norton Show in February, he told fellow guest and Strictly pro Johannes Radebe: “It’s hard to confess this, but I would absolutely love to do Strictly. I would absolutely love it. It’s on the bucket list.”

Scarlett Moffatt

From her humble roots on the early days of Gogglebox, Moffatt has carved out a hugely successful TV career with a number of documentaries and entertainment shows to her name recently.

She’s also no stranger to reality shows as a previous winner of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!, and is known for her love of dancing on TikTok.

Strictly loves a soap star contestant, and now that Marsh has left her long-running role on Coronation Street she’s free of any strict filming schedules.

Marsh is also now a BBC star as a Morning Live presenter, so she’s ticking all the boxes.

Louis Theroux

He might be better known for his hard-hitting documentaries and interviews, but Theroux is just as keen on sequinning up as the next celebrity.

Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show in November, he admitted: “I like to think I’m a good dancer. I know I’ve had too many drinks when I’m in the kitchen dancing while listening to something on the smart speaker, often hip-hop, and I start doing the funky robot and then I start doing MC Hammer spins. And that’s where it happens and I start thinking I should really go on Strictly.”

Rosie Jones

Comedian Rosie Jones has said she would “absolutely love” to go on Strictly and was delighted to see deaf contestant Rose Ayling-Ellis win in 2021 as she had grown up never seeing anybody on TV with cerebral palsy like her.

She told Metro: “In recent years people like Rose Ayling-Ellis on Strictly have just shown that having a disability isn’t a disadvantage and it will never stop me! It’s about showing people anything is possible… bring it on!”
