The buzz surrounding the drama and ongoing rivalries in “Selling Sunset” is reaching fever pitch, prompting speculation about a potential shake-up in the cast for the show’s upcoming tenth season. This possibility has fans eagerly awaiting news on what changes might be on the horizon.
In a recent exclusive interview with Us Weekly at the T-Mobile exclusive unveiling at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Jason Oppenheim, a central figure in the series, addressed these speculations. He commented, “Ultimately, it’s a decision that lies with Netflix and the production team.” This statement suggests that the future of the cast is still very much up in the air.
Oppenheim, 48, candidly shared that “every option is still under consideration” as the team gears up for the new season. He also touched on Chrishell Stause‘s rumored departure from the beloved Netflix show, on which she has been a staple since its debut in 2019.
“Chrishell is an adult and fully capable of deciding what’s best for her,” he remarked. “I believe it’s important for everyone on the cast to make their own decisions.” He added that, as of now, “she is still part of the Oppenheim Group,” though he acknowledged that this could change based on her own choices.
Oppenheim continued: “It certainly wouldn’t come from me [if she left]. I leave it to everyone to figure out. And of course, there’s also Netflix and production, who have a say too. So I try my best to not make decisions, if that makes sense.”
The reality series became an overnight success for Netflix as viewers were introduced to employees at high-end Los Angeles real estate brokerage. Over the years, viewers have watched falling outs, fights and ongoing feuds.

“I don’t like it. I want to get it back to real estate,” Oppenheim told Us. “We can create a really, really amazing show without anything below the belt. Some of our best seasons were without [that].”
Oppenheim would love to see the show return back to basics.
“I think there should be a fun show — like an escape show — for people to watch. Not a show that turns people off or divides people,” he said. “That’s ridiculous. That’s honestly one of the most attractive things about Selling Sunset is that it can be such a fun show to just cuddle up with your partner and just enjoy. We don’t want to have people arguing after they watch an episode.”
While Netflix has not yet renewed Selling Sunset, Oppenheim is holding out hope for a more peaceful season 10. He also addressed concerns about more possible exits since Amanza Smith and Chelsea Lazkani don’t currently have active real estate licenses, according to the California Department of Real Estate.
“As a practical matter, what happens is that agents every year have to renew their licenses. Sometimes they forget and so you just get a notification,” he clarified. “Tthen all you do have to pay a fine. I don’t think that that’s necessarily indicative of much. It’s happened to a lot of people.”
Selling Sunset is currently streaming on Netflix.
