À propos de cet audio
Mark Rober is having one of the most high-profile weeks of his entire career. The biggest headline is his new Netflix deal, which has dominated both entertainment news and social media. According to Kidscreen and NetInfluencer, Netflix has greenlit a major kid-friendly competition series for 2026, hosted and executive produced by Rober through his CrunchLabs banner, alongside Jimmy Kimmel’s company Kimmelot. People close to Rober are calling this his “biggest move yet,” as it brings his signature blend of science experiments, wacky engineering, and educational hijinks to a global streaming audience. Variety-style outlets report Netflix will also package Rober's greatest hits from YouTube for release later this year, meaning his viral elephant toothpaste blasts and glitter bomb pranks will soon reach millions more outside his core YouTube base.
Social media is abuzz, with Instagram posts and TikTok clips celebrating the news and fans speculating about the scope of the upcoming series. NetInfluencer notes Rober now commands over 76 million followers across all platforms, a number surging in the wake of this announcement. The streamer’s move mirrors Netflix’s push to license successful YouTube stars like Ms. Rachel and The Sidemen, and Rober is seen as the crown jewel of this strategy.
Meanwhile, Mark Rober is still entrenched in charity work and public advocacy. International Business Times and AP News report that Rober, in partnership with MrBeast, is co-leading the record-setting TeamWater campaign to raise $40 million by the end of August for global clean water projects. The campaign is extraordinary: a recent charity livestream with MrBeast and Adin Ross reportedly brought in over $12 million in just 16 hours, with TikTok joining the push through a $1.5 million donation plus a custom donation sticker. Major outlets are framing this as the most ambitious influencer-led environmental campaign since #TeamTrees and #TeamSeas, seeking to provide sustainable water access for two million people.
Mark Rober has not shied away from the spotlight to promote these efforts. Just last night, he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live, chatting with guest host Tiffany Haddish about everything from pulling YouTube pranks and space travel to the urgent mission of TeamWater. In typical Rober fashion, he dropped hints about upcoming experiments and teased undisclosed scientific breakthroughs.
There have been no scandals, controversies, or major negative headlines about Rober in the past few days. Industry speculation has swirled around exactly how much creative control he’ll have in his Netflix projects, but neither Netflix nor Rober has commented. For now, all credible sources agree: this week marks a pivotal moment in Rober’s biography, expanding both his cultural reach and long-term impact as one of the world’s top science communicators and digital educators.
