Cast
Pre-production started early to mid-February 2014. Casting was done simultaneously with casting for Aprendiz Celebridades, the tenth season of O Aprendiz, the Brazilian version of The Apprentice, that was being adapted to the Celebrity Apprentice format at the time. The season featured eighteen new celebrities.

The camp
A half-day prior to the game officially starting, the cast was led to believe that they would enter directly into the Farm. They were, however, placed at an isolated camp miles away from the actual Farm. At the camp, contestants must create their own society, built their own shelter and figure out how to survive against the elements, while given minimal resources.

After nightfall, the contestants took part of a Bonfire ceremony, where each one should speak and then symbolically burn what they want to leave behind.

The twins
For the first time ever in a Brazilian reality show, two contestants (similar twins Pepê and Neném) will play the game as a single competitor.

Contestants
On February 2, 2017, approximately two years after the show, contestant Heloísa Faissol was found dead in her apartment aged 46.

Key power
Since season 5, contestants compete to win the Key Power each week. The Key Power holder is the only contestant who can open the mystery box located at the Farm. However, opening the box will unleash either a good consequence or a bad consequence at the nomination process.

Since season 6, only three pre-selected contestants (one from each team) are allowed to compete each round. However, this season, one of the three is banned from competing by the current Farmer of the Week, leaving only two players at the challenge. The winner becomes the Key Power holder for the week, while the loser is sent to the barn with his whole team (minus the current Farmer if he/she is part of that team) until the vote. The Key Holder's choice is marked in bold.

In week 11, only the team with more members at this point of the game (Rabbit) competed for the Special Key Power and the other contestants were sent to the Barn.
