Incredible to see @youtubecreators like @Markiplier holding the keys to their own production and distribution. This is the new era of Hollywood.
YouTuber Markiplier broke down in tears after his self-financed horror movie "Iron Lung" opened to $21 million at the worldwide box office: “It’s kind of a hero moment to showcase indie filmmaking is possible.” “It’s been a bit of an emotional day in the best way possible. So I’ll first say, ‘Thank you guys so much'... I personally don’t care about the numbers, other than, ‘Woohoo, success.’ I’m going to be able to give the crew a big bonus. That’s awesome. I’m not a big studio. So the split with the theaters is basically 50-50. It’s really cool because everybody wins.” variety.com/2026/film/box-of…

YouTube just released its annual report on the top 10 creators, and @caylusq came second to non other then MrBeast. CaylusBlox was created just a little over a year ago and is one of 12 channels we run. Early next year it will become his third channel to receive a diamond playbutton with more to come in the future. Caylus constantly has reinvented himself over the past decade on YouTube. Just under half a year ago he started streaming and he is already the biggest streamer on YouTube based on hours watched vs streamed. On top of the 12 YouTube channels we have our game studio, CayPlay, which saw our debut title @WaterParkSim become a viral hit reaching billions of viewers and has sold nearly half a million copies on steam alone. We also launched our first Roblox game DUMP in Alpha and saw 145,000 peak concurrent players. We learned so much from that Alpha and the team is cooking for the full release early next year. I share all of this because it is rare that the top creators pull back the curtain, and show what goes into staying at the top. Caylus is one of the hardest working people I have ever met and his love for what he does is the fuel that allows him to keep taking things to the next level. It sounds crazy but I promise this is all just the beginning. GTA 6 is our next target + a few more game releases coming soonish ;) It takes an army and we truly have the best tea on both the YouTube and CayPlay side. Thank you all for the support this past year it truly has been incredible.

🚨HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT🚨 We are teaming up with @YouTubeGaming and @nopixel for one of our most ambitious projects yet. This is the first series of its kind. A creator-led, 12-part GTA V NoPixel roleplay story officially powered by YouTube. @caylusq is stepping into the NoPixel universe in a way that helps bridge the gap between the complex, incredible storylines of NoPixel and the YouTube format, bringing them to life in easy-to-consume episodes for a global audience. Much more to come. Stay tuned 👀 #GTAV #NoPixel #GTARP
