That's right folks, MTV's got a new round of seven strangers for Real World: Hollywood, beginning Wednesday, April 16 from 10:00-11:00 p.m. ET for thirteen weeks of fights, hookups and tears.

This is the first house on the Real World series that's incorporated environmentally friendly items and eco-friendly lifestyle choices with the help of http://think.mtv.com.

Unlike past seasons, the roommates won't be focusing on one group job, instead they will be focusing on their Hollywood dreams: to be an actor, singer, journalist, host, or music producer. The seven roomies will also form a comedy improv troupe, taking lessons at the IO West.

"On this 20th anniversary season we wanted to get back a little to the show's origins by casting people who were pursuing dreams of careers in the entertainment business," said Jon Murray, The Real World Co-Creator and Chairman & President of Bunim-Murray Productions. "It gives the show real stakes and is a wonderful contrast to all the usual hook-ups and fights."

Starting on April 10, Bunim-Murray will provide seven to eight clips daily of raw, unedited footage, taking viewers beyond the show experience and giving them "The Real World" in real time. All of the great moments of the series will be teased online the week before the episode airs with more drama, more fights and everyone's favorite -- more hook-ups. A message board will also be available so people can chat about the show, cast, and their actions with other fans.

There will also be an eco-tip at the end of every show this time around. These tips will be online as well at http://think.mtv.com. This site will also have a "green" house tour, interviews with the cast on living green, and ways viewers can be more eco-friendly to help preserve the environment.

Real World's official site features exclusive cast and house photos and blogs from the Hollywood roommates, along with sneak peeks of upcoming episodes, including previously-aired episodes viewable online.

One week prior to the season premiere of The Real World: Hollywood, the first episode will be available for download through the iTunes Store, Amazon Unbox, Xbox's Live Marketplace and Bit Torrent.

Can't wait to know about the cast of the new season? You're in luck, meet the cast early:

Joey, 24 - Chicago , IL

A true blue Chicagoan, Joey has never ventured outside the state. A personal trainer and a former bodybuilder, he is very devoted to his athletic training and works out all the time. Unfortunately, Joey continues to be haunted by his troubled upbringing of alcohol and addictions. He hopes to create his own path by following his Hollywood dream to be an actor. However, Joey's impossibly high expectations on himself make dealing with the highs and lows of the business most difficult. Will it lead to his destruction?

Kimberly, 24 - Columbia , SC

With her southern belle charm, Kimberly sometimes is perceived as a ditsy blonde, but her naiveté comes from growing up in a small town. Raised in a conservative religious household, Kimberly rebelled against the restrictive rules. She is a ball of energy, loves to be around people and have a fun time. Outspoken, she sometimes doesn't think before she speaks and her comments can be offensive to others. Kimberly's goal is to be the host of an entertainment show.

Dave, 22 - Waynesboro , PA

Outgoing and fun, Dave loves to be the center of attention and will do anything for a laugh - or to see someone's shocked expression. A natural athlete, Dave likes to play any and all sports - from football, to cheerleading, to triathlons. He is very comfortable in front of the camera and would like to be an actor or television host.

Sarah, 21 - Phoenix , AZ

A recent graduate from Arizona State , Sarah is serious about becoming a broadcast journalist. A newfound feminist, she still retains strong conservative, traditional views. Sarah, who is Hispanic, is very close to her family, and this is the first time she has lived so far from home. Her move to Hollywood puts a strain on her long-distance relationship with her boyfriend - who used to be her debate coach.

Will, 23 - Detroit , MI

Charismatic and witty, Will is the ladies' man of the house. Determined to be a successful music producer, Will is a bit of a hustler and will hit the streets to sell the music he has written. Back in Detroit , he worked as a DJ, performing at parties and bar mitzvahs. Will continues to create "beats" and to show off his moves - on and off the dance floor.

Brianna, 20 - Philadelphia , PA

Brianna is a self-defined "Philly girl" - she tells it like it is and doesn't allow others to disrespect her. An ethnic mix of German, African-American and Puerto Rican, she hides a very sensitive side beneath her tough exterior. Until she moved to Hollywood , Brianna worked as an exotic dancer and left behind a volatile relationship with her boyfriend. Her passion is singing - and she was among the top 45 to compete on "American Idol" (season five). Does she have the ambition to make it in the business?

Greg, 20 - Daytona Beach , FL

Greg is the first "Real World" roommate selected by the viewers in an online casting vote with the online name "PretyBoy" - and has dubbed himself "The Chosen One." With an unusual outlook on people - he refers to everyone else as "peasants" and all women are "associates," he is extremely competitive when it comes to sports and academics. His attitude does not make him the favorite in the house - especially when he plays pranks on everyone. Although he studies Criminal Justice at the University of Florida , Greg's dream is to be a high-end fashion model.
