MrBeast In Talks To Have Own Reality Competition Show On Amazon Prime Video

MrBeast is reportedly close to signing a $100-million deal for a reality competition show with Amazon Prime Video.

On Monday, Variety confirmed the talks regarding the potential deal but stated that the specific details about the possible MrBeast-hosted show are still unknown. Interestingly, the show could reportedly follow the format of the famous YouTuber's viral challenges on the platform, including the giving away of cash prizes.

The news was first reported by Puck News, which cited a source saying that MrBeast's deal with Amazon Prime Video was potentially near $100 million.

However, Amazon declined to comment on the reports. On the other hand, the YouTuber's representatives did not respond to Variety's request for comment.

MrBeast -- real name James Stephen "Jimmy" Donaldson -- currently has a massive following of over 234 million subscribers on YouTube.

As of press time, his most-viewed video on the online video streaming platform is his 2021 reenactment of the Netflix series "Squid Game," where he awarded one winner a whopping $456,000. It currently boasts over 564 million video views.

His second and fifth most-viewed videos on YouTube are both challenges as well -- "Last To Leave Circle Wins $500,000" and "Ages 1-100 Fight for $500,000," respectively. The videos have 398 million and 319 million views, respectively.

Meanwhile, his third and fourth top uploads are comparisons of cheap and super expensive things, namely: "$1 vs. $500,000 Plane Ticket!" and "$1 vs. $1,000,000 Hotel Room!" The videos have 329 million and 325 million views, respectively.

MrBeast already has a comedy documentary series available for purchase on Amazon Prime Video. It premiered in 2021 and currently has three seasons with 10 episodes each.

Season 1 features video challenges such as buying everything in a store, eating a $70,000 golden pizza, giving MrBeast's credit card to random people, adopting every dog in a shelter and giving $1,000,000 worth of food to people in need, among many others.

The same theme applies to the second and third seasons of the series.

"MrBeast is more than just a YouTuber. Between his generous digital philanthropy and his multiple business ventures, he is paving the way for a new generation of entertainers and entrepreneurs," read the series' description on Amazon Prime Video.
