With half a billion fans, a multi-million dollar fortune, and a global business empire, dethroning YouTube's biggest influencer, Jimmy Donaldson (aka MrBeast), would be no small feat. However, a 54-page court document may present his toughest challenge yet.
Five female contestants from the upcoming Prime Video show *Beast Games* are filing legal action against his production company, MrB2024, and Amazon in Los Angeles. Promoted as the largest reality competition series ever, the show is set to feature 1,000 contestants competing for a $5 million (£3.7 million) prize—if it airs at all. The lawsuit has thrown the show's future into jeopardy.
Among numerous redacted sections, the legal filing includes allegations that the contestants "particularly and collectively suffered" in an environment that "systematically fostered a culture of misogyny and sexism."
