Cowshed Collective, the UK based entertainment studio and agency, is producing Season 2 of high-stakes reality series Inside for British YouTube stars The Sidemen. Season 1 streamed on YouTube, but the series will be moving to Netflix for its second season.

The seven part-series is set to premiere globally on the streaming platform in early 2025.

In collaboration with Netflix and The Sidemen (Ethan Payne, Harry Lewis, Joshua Bradley, Olajide Olatunji (also known as KSI), Simon Minter, Tobi Brown and Vikram Barn), Cowshed Collective will be producing the show that features 12 influencers locked inside a house, where they compete in a series of challenges for a prize worth up to £1 million.

Barn, speaking to the BBC, said: “Netflix is the gold standard and part of us working with them is to say that over the past decade we’ve managed to go from filming content in our bedrooms to working with the biggest streaming platform in the world.”

Cowshed Collective CEO. George Cowin, commented: “This commission marks a huge shift in the entertainment industry. At Cowshed Collective we have again proven that we can produce landmark reality series which not only draws millions of viewers, but also engages a community and influences cultural narrative across platforms. We are delighted to be working with The Sidemen to deliver this series to a global audience. We will continue to disrupt the entertainment industry with a quicker, more efficient production model that really delivers”.

The Sidemen will serve as executive producers alongside Cowin and Ryan O’Shea for Cowshed Collective.
