'Love Island' Heads to the US -- Meet the Cast of the Dating Series!

The show premieres July 9 on CBS.

Love Island  is heading stateside! 

The US version of the international reality series premieres on CBS on July 9, and before the show's debut, we're getting a sneak peek at the 11 singles looking for love on TV. 

Love Island, currently airing its fifth season in the U.K., centers on a group of "Islanders" embarking on a summer of love. Every few days, the Islanders must couple up or risk being dumped from the island, while new Islander arrivals and dramatic twists put them to the test. Throughout the series, viewers will have an opportunity to shape events on screen, and will eventually reward one lucky couple with a cash prize.
