Adam Rippon, Tonya Harding and more superstar athletes to face-off in 'Dancing With the Stars' season 26

The competition for the Mirror Ball trophy in the upcoming season of "Dancing With the Stars" is sure to be fierce -- as the season 26 cast features an all-star lineup of Olympic and professional athletes.

Adam Rippon, Tonya Harding and Arike Ogunbowale are among the list of celebrities who will be battling each other on the dance floor on the hit show, it was revealed on "Good Morning America" today.

"I think I really hope I’m not shy," joked the outspoken Rippon. "I think Jenna [Johnson] is going to have her hands full and I can’t wait."

Ogunbowale is training for "DWTS" in South Bend, Indiana, where she is still attending classes at Notre Dame. Ogunbowale led her team last month to the NCAA women's college basketball championship.

"I have a lot of stuff going on with school. I still haven’t caught up from the Final Four," she said of balancing "DWTS" training with classes. "But we’re definitely going to have time to do it."

With so many high-level athletes competing against each other, this could be the most cutthroat competition in the ballroom to date.

NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Former MLB star Johnny Damon

Olympic figure skater Mirai Nagasu
