If you've watched Beast Games and want in on the action then now might be your chance, as MrBeast has put out a casting call for the second season with an updated and increased cash prize at the end.
While it wasn't exactly popular with critics, MrBeast's Amazon game show 'Beast Games' was clearly enough of a hit with audiences for Season 2 to be greenlit for production starting very soon.
Despite claims that he 'ripped off' the show from a key rival and allegations of 'preventable' accidents occurring on set, things appear to be ramping up for the follow up season - at least that's indicated by the boosted reward for winning it all.
As revealed by a post from the mrbeastcasting Instagram page, participants in the second season of Beast Games will be competing for a cash prize of $15,000,000, which is a $5,000,000 or 50% increase from the reward at the end of the first season.
Jeffrey Randall Allen, the winner of Season 1, has expressed his frustration at the significant amount of tax he has to pay on his $10,000,000 winnings, making clear what loopholes he could use to keep more of his hard-earned cash, so anyone netting the $15 million from Season 2 might want to listen out for some tips.

That could very well be you though as an official casting call has now been put out for the second season, requesting anyone who's wanting to battle it out for the life-changing prize to put their name forward.
"We're back! Apply now to submit for Beast Games Season 2! Submit your chance to compete for $15,000,000 in cash and prizes," the post reads, but you'll have to read through the extensive application form to make sure that you can actually qualify.
In order to be eligible, you'll need to meet the following requirements:
- Be at least 18 years old by the time you submit
- Have a valid U.S. passport, be a legal citizen of the U.S., and have a valid U.S. Social Security, Tax ID number, or visa/waiver
- Be free for six consecutive weeks in the period of May to July 2025
You also can't be employed or closely connected to anyone involved in the creation of Beast Games or MrBeast's YouTube channel, and you also can't be a candidate for public office, or plan to run for office within the next two years.
On top of this, you'll have to detail how you're either a street smart strategic thinker or a physically strong monster capable of endurance - clearly the two types of individuals that the Beast Games team believe are capable of completing the various challenges thrown at you.
You'll also need to submit a one minute video answering a set of questions, including your favorite moments from the first season of Beast Games, what makes you an 'unforgettable competitor', and also what you'd do with $5,000,000 - casual questions, of course.
For the first season there was an initial heat of 2,000 contestants, which was then reduced to 1,000 after a series of challenges. With the popularity of the show and the allure of an even bigger cash prize though, it'll likely be a ruthless fight to make it to the final set of names.
