A vacancy was left on the series after Ant Middleton announced his departure in March, describing his experience as \u201cincredible\u201d but adding that \u201cit\u2019s time to move on\u201d.<\/p>\n
We now know Rudy Reyes will step into the role of Chief Instructor, coming from a highly decorated career in the military, which includes time spent as a Recon Marine \u2013 an elite rank limited to just 300 troops.<\/p>\n

And to be named Chief Instructor is a huge honour \u2013 made even more rewarding working alongside Billy, Foxy and Remi \u2013 heroes on and off screen.\u201d<\/p>\n Adeleke added: \u201cSince I departed from the military in 2016 my main focus in life has been to inspire, motivate and educate people \u2014 whether through writing, speaking or visual storytelling.<\/p>\n \u201cTherefore I am very grateful to the SAS: Who Dares Wins team \u2013 especially my SOF brothers Billy, Foxy, Rudy \u2013 for allowing me to be a part of this unique, inspirational and transformative experience. And through this amazing show, I\u2019m looking forward to playing a role in changing the lives of many \u2018recruits\u2019 and viewers around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n Continuing SAS: Who Dares Wins stars, Foxy (Jason Fox) and Billy (Mark Billingham), expressed their excitement at reconnecting with serviceman from across the pond, while promising \u201cnext level brutality\u201d in the series to come.<\/p>\n SAS: Who Dares Wins has been recommissioned for a seventh series, while the celebrity spin-off will also be back for a fourth run, both of which are expected to air next year.<\/p>\n SAS: Who Dares Wins will return to Channel 4 in 2022.
