Based off the success of Jackass Forever, we’re working with the creators to continue the partnership with a new series, bringing even more ridiculous antics straight to Paramount+,” said Paramount global CEO Bob Bakish.

Following the success of the original series, a number of spin-offs were released – including Wildboyz and Viva La Bam – alongside four official movies and further big screen outings. The most notable cast members over the years have included Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Chris Pontius, Dave England, Ryan Dunn, Steve-O and Jason ‘Wee Man’ Acuña.

Jackass Forever introduced a number of new faces, notably Jasper Dolphin, Zach Holmes, Rachel Wolfson, Eric Manaka and Sean ‘Poopies’ McInerney.
