The 22nd season of "Dancing with the Stars" is only a month away, and rumors about the show's celebrity cast have started pouring in ahead of the premiere. This week, it was reported that "Fuller House" star Jodie Sweetin will be competing on the ABC reality dance competition show as a source told Us Weekly that the actress has signed on for season 22.

"DWTS" has yet to confirm the reports, but Sweetin took to her Twitter account to comment on the rumors, tweeting, "OMG! So many rumors flying around! We had Maks and Val on an episode of #FullerHouse and now everyone is saying I'm on DWTS! I AM a fan!"

According to Entertainment Tonight, "DWTS" brothers Maks and Val Chmerkovskiy are guest-starring in a special episode of the Netflix show, which sees sisters Stephanie (Sweetin) and DJ (Candace Cameron Bure) on a fun girls' night out. ET was able to watch a prescreening of the episode and based on the actress's performance, the website said that Sweetin would be a "sensational addition" to the ballroom.

Back in 2014, Cameron Bure competed on the ABC show and finished third with her partner, professional dancing partner, Mark Ballas. Meanwhile, Us Weekly claims that not everyone in "Fuller House" was enthusiastic about the show as both Lori Loughlin and John Stamos have allegedly turned down the show.

Meanwhile, another celebrity who is rumored to be joining the show is "Orange Is the New Black" star Taryn Manning. Speculation that the actress was set to join the show began making the rounds online after Manning tweeted "#DWTS" on Jan. 27.

Buddy TV reports that "Chasing Life" star Italia Ricci is also rumored to be joining the show, as well as current "Bachelor" Ben Higgins, Olympic gymnast Dominique Moceanu, and NFL players Rashad Jennings and Mike Tolbert.

"Dancing with the Stars" season 22 premieres Monday, March 21 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
