Trailer and production details for MRBEAST LAB and what to expect

Before MRBEAST LAB, the team rolled out animated shorts in 2025 with Moose Toys and Stoopid Buddy Stoodios. These shorts introduced the lab setting, the hybrid beasts, and the Shroud as an ongoing threat. The long-form series follows that setup and expands it into multi-episode arcs.

Production credits list Stoopid Buddy Stoodios as producer and Sam J. Levine as showrunner, drawing on prior work that includes Robot Chicken and Penn Zero. The C21Media announcement confirms that Beast Animations is the destination and that MrBeast stars as himself in a mission to build a team of super-strong monsters to defend Earth.

The trailer synopsis suggests a vertical quest through a 100-story facility. Each level poses an experiment or creature challenge. The story leans on rescue stakes when the team is separated and must regain control of the lab while containing incursions by the Shroud. Expect serialized escalation, more creature variants tied to the toy line, and YouTube-first pacing geared to weekly viewing.

To frame the intent behind the project, Animation Magazine quoted Moose Toys leadership on the expansion. As per Animation Magazine report dated February 10, 2025, CEO of Moose Toys, Paul Solomon, stated,

“We’re doubling down on our investment in MrBeast Lab, which has already been our most successful new launch ever,...The dynamic, action-packed shorts will bring a whole new dimension to MrBeast Lab, extending the brand out of the toy aisle and creating a fresh way for kids to engage with the characters. With the experience, genius and irreverent storytelling that Stoopid Buddy Stoodios brings to the party, we have found the ideal partner to bring this to life.”

The same report outlines the creative leads and confirms a fall rollout for the shorts that seeded the current series plan.

Stay tuned for more updates.
