The trailer, gets right into the heart of the action showing the celebs face a number of brutal challenges in harsh conditions.
They are shown underwater, gearing up to fight each other and facing explosions out in the desert.
One scene captures the painfully awkward moment one recruit, whose identity remains hidden, wets himself whilst lined up in front of the directing staff.
From abseiling to climbing across buildings the celebs are set to be put through their paces, in one of the toughest challenges of their lives.
Love Island alum Dani Dyer, 29, is shown throughout the trailer looking dazed as she competes against team Aussie.

It was announced that the reality star had signed up to the show back in June.
Speaking about her recruitment, she said: “I’m a massive fan of the show. I’ve always watched it and wondered if I could do it.
“I want to put myself to the test. I’m nuts, but I think I will be good at
it.
“I’ll be completely out of my comfort zone. I just hope that I will be able to stop listening to the voices in my head and just get to the end because that would make me so proud.
“I think physically I’ve got this. Mentally is what I’ll struggle with as my brain attacks me all the bloody time.
“I just want to believe in myself a little bit more and stop being a negative
Nancy.”
