The Chemical Engineer Marvin Achi was announced to be a part of the new cast before fast replaced.
July 5 was an eventful time to be a Big Brother fan. That afternoon, after much uncertainty, the cast of 16 new houseguests was declared to the public. But the information wasn’t done then, as it was revealed later that evening that one of them would not be entering the house, replaced with a new name and face.
In this article everything you need to know about why chemical processing engineer Marvin Achi was removed from the Big Brother 24 cast.

According to his bio released with CBS’s initial cast, Marvin Achi is a 28-year-old chemical processing engineer. He was originally born in Rivers State, Nigeria, but currently resides in Houston, Texas. Marvin highlighted his physical capabilities. He assumed the other houseguests might perceive him to be pompous due to his physique, and he feared people might dislike him because of that. But he also said he would be ready to convert the house if it meant learning his game.
At 10:00 p.m. ET on July 5, only seven hours after the cast was announced, the official Big Brother social media account reported that Marvin would no longer be a houseguest. Naturally, Marvin’s shocking replacement generated a rampant amount of assumptions from Big Brother fans across the internet. Though CBS and Marvin have made no official announcement as to the reason why he was removed, there are a couple of things we can speculate about.
Quite simply. Marvin could have tested positive for COVID-19, which could have automatically eliminated him from running less than 24 hours before the live premiere and move-in.
Nevertheless, the honest answer may be more dramatic. Shortly after the statement of Marvin in the cast, the Big Brother fanbase saw that he had just emerged in the current season of America’s Got Talent. In his act, he showed off his abs-based skills, specifically around making them clap. The judges were baffled by the talent but chose to let him through to the next round.
