Netflix has greenlit a second series, and a US version, of Inside, the reality show created by Youtuber collective The Sidemen.
Earlier this year, The Sidemen launched Inside, their first long-form reality show on YouTube. The series featured ten influencers and reality stars confined to a house for a week, vying for a prize of up to £1 million.
The Sidemen say “When we came up with the idea of Inside, we knew we wanted to shake up the game. We all grew up watching reality TV and are big fans of the drama and jeopardy that come with it. Combining that with a prize fund and the challenges that our fans know us for, we knew people would be hooked. We are so proud of the first series and now with Netflix on board for a second season and a US version, this is just the start”
Season 2 of Inside will debut exclusively on Netflix. Production has already begun in the UK with 12 content creators. Additionally, Season 1 of a US version of Inside will start production soon.
Season 2 of the UK series and Season 1 of the US version are both set to premiere globally in 2025. Season 1 of the UK series will also be made available on Netflix. The Sidemen will serve as executive producers of both versions.
Executive Producers for The Sidemen are Ethan ‘Behzinga’ Payne, Harry ‘W2S’ Lewis, Joshua ‘Zerkaa’ Bradley, Olajide ‘KSI’ Olatunji, Simon ‘Miniminter’ Minter, Tobi ‘Tbjzl’ Brown and Vikram ‘Vikkstar123’ Barn
Cowshed Collective, the UK based entertainment studio and agency, is to produce the show.
Cowshed Collective’s George Cowin says “This commission marks a huge shift in the entertainment industry. At Cowshed Collective we have again proven that we can produce landmark reality series which not only draws millions of viewers, but also engages a community and influences cultural narrative across platforms. We are delighted to be working with The Sidemen to deliver this series to a global audience. We will continue to disrupt the entertainment industry with a quicker, more efficient production model that really delivers”.
The Sidemen will serve as executive producers alongside George Cowin and Ryan O’Shea for Cowshed Collective.
