AceShowbiz - With only weeks away before the premiere of "Dancing with the Stars" season 25, speculations about the cast lineup keep mounting. Derek Fisher, Jordan Fisher and Frankie Muniz are among the latest names rumored to hit the dance floor when the competition kicks off Monday, September 18 at 8 P.M. on ABC. E! News first reported the casting news.

Derek is a former NBA star and former coach of New York Knicks. The 43-year-old made headlines last June when he was arrested on suspicion of DUI charges after flipping his car while driving on the freeway with his girlfriend Gloria Govan in California.

Jordan is a 23-year-old singer and actor who appeared in Disney Channel's "Teen Beach Movie" franchise. He also starred in FOX's "Grease Live" in 2016 and most recently performed on Broadway in "Hamilton".

Frankie is best known for playing the title character on FOX's family sitcom "Malcolm in the Middle", which earned him an Emmy Award nomination and two Golden Globe Award nominations. In 2008, he put his acting career on hold to pursue an open wheel racing career. He will return to the small screen through a guest stint on AMC's "Preacher" in season 2.

Other stars who are reported to join the reality show for the upcoming season are "Shark Tank" shark Barbara Corcoran and former Paralympic swimmer Victoria Arlen. According to ET, 22-year-old Victoria will be paired with Valentin Chmerkovskiy.

"Val is beyond excited about his partner this season," a source tells the site. "He's completely re-energized and is feeling really optimistic about this season." Val placed third with Fifth Harmony's member Normani Kordei in last season.

So far, "Property Brothers" star Drew Scott is the only celebrity confirmed to participate in the competition. Nick Lachey and wife Vanessa Lachey (Vanessa Minnillo) as well as "Total Divas" star Nikki Bella were previously reported to join "DWTS" season 25.

Meanwhile, singer Bobby Brown has reportedly bowed out at the last minute. "Bobby Brown was originally slated to be on this new season of DWTS, but recently pulled out," a source tells Us.

Besides Val, the pro dancers who will be part of the cast this forthcoming season are Peta Murgatroyd, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Mark Ballas, Emma Slater, Lindsay Arnold, Witney Carson, Artem Chigvintsev, Keo Motsepe, Gleb Savchenko, Sharna Burgess and Alan Bersten.
