“My goal is to make the greatest show possible and prove YouTubers and creators can succeed on other platforms,” said MrBeast in the press release. “Amazon gave me the creative control I need to try and make it happen. I hope to make the YouTube community proud.”
“MrBeast has captured the attention and imagination of fans of all ages, from all walks of life, and all over the world,” said Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios. “We are excited to work with Jimmy and his talented team to bring his brilliant, high production, and stakes-raising concepts to Beast Games for our global customers to experience.”
