"For this upcoming cycle, there are a lot of different looks," Mock-Falcon said. "The models all have really different backgrounds and have different stories to tell this time, stories that haven't been told before."

Ken Mok, who has produced every cycle of the show alongside Banks, shared some insights about his favorite current and past elements of the competition.

"One of the models who we think will really get a lot of attention this time is a girl who has Asperger syndrome. Her journey in the series is a fascinating one," Mok said.

"I like that you always get the unexpected, from the types of girls we get to what happens when we start shooting," Mok said.

"It's true when they say you can't write this stuff. If you wrote any of it down, it wouldn't ring true."
