Jimmy “MrBeast”recently stirred excitement among fans with an announcement regarding his upcoming YouTube video, which will showcase an impressive lineup of star athletes, including Neymar Jr., Serena Williams, Steph Curry, and Damian Lillard. The anticipation skyrocketed on May 15, 2025, when Brazilian football sensation Neymar Jr. shared a fun photo with MrBeast on Instagram.
In response, MrBeast reposted the image on his own platform, eagerly teasing his audience with the caption:
“Big video coming up.”
Shortly thereafter, he took to X to unveil the star-studded roster for his next video, expressing his enthusiasm with the following message:
“Got a video coming up that has Neymar, Steph Curry, Serena Williams, Damian Lillard, etc. I’M SO EXCITED”
Upcoming Project: A New Chapter in MrBeast’s Pro vs Amateur Series
With a staggering 395 million subscribers, MrBeast holds the title of the most popular YouTube channel globally. Over the years, he has emerged as a prominent figure in online entertainment, utilizing his influence to collaborate with high-profile celebrities and sports personalities.
One of MrBeast’s most engaging series is “Pro vs Amateur,”where professional athletes go head-to-head against fans or amateurs for the chance to win impressive cash prizes. The latest edition, released in November 2024, featured internationally acclaimed athletes like Cristiano Ronaldo, Olympic medalist Noah Lyles, and NFL superstar Tom Brady, each competing against enthusiastic fans.
In this thrilling episode, popular streamer Darren “IShowSpeed”made a notable appearance but was narrowly defeated by Noah Lyles in a race for a $100,000 prize. This exciting format has captivated viewers and is likely to be reflected in the upcoming video.
As buzz builds around his latest project, MrBeast has been actively reaching out for additional athlete collaborations. Earlier this month, he extended an open invitation to Indian cricket star Virat Kohli on social media:
“@imVkohli Hey! Anyway I could get you in a video?”
Despite the post gaining substantial traction, Kohli has yet to respond publicly. His absence from the recently announced athlete lineup hints that he may not be participating in this new video.
