Michael Bay Is Making A 'Skibidi Toilet' Movie

This morning, when many Twitter / X users read a tweet from DiscussingFilm announcing that Michael Bay had a Skibidi Toilet movie and TV franchise "in the works," their first instinct was to double check and see if it was a parody account.

It was not. A Skibidi Toilet movie and TV franchise is in the works from Michael Bay.

As reported by real publication Variety, former Paramount Pictures President Adam Goodman stated he and Michael Bay are "absolutely" interested in bringing the supremely bizarre YouTube series, which stars a head in a toilet, among other characters, to either the big or small screen.

“We are absolutely in talks right now, both on the television side and the earliest conversations right now on the film side,” Goodman said.

What follows is an absolutely astounding series of quotes considering they are about a "Skibidi Toilet" film and television franchise. These include:

"He's building something that could be the next 'Transformers' or could be a Marvel universe." – Goodman on "Skibidi Toilet" creator Alexey Gerasimov.

"If we find a partner in this that really believes there's opportunity for this to grow and to really see the storytelling grow and for this to be where we hope this can be, then film and TV seems like a natural extension for us."

"Michael and Jeffrey Beecroft, who's his longtime production designer and a colleague of his that's worked with him on all of his movies, have been working very closely with Alexey to really professionalize the kind of back engine of this, to make sure, if we ever decide to go film or television, that this is kind of lifted beyond just the resources that creators have on the internet."

Goodman also stated they are entertaining a "hybrid animated/live-action version of Skibidi … likened stylistically to the John Wick and District 9 movies."

This proved to be too much for the internet to handle, as it seems the average social media user's mind could not comprehend how the arguable poster meme of Gen Alpha brain rot.

If you count yourself among those who are not excited about a Skibidi Toilet cinematic universe (the actual, cinematic kind, not the YouTube / Roblox kind), you can take solace in the fact that it sounds as though talks are in the very early stages. However, even if the project falls through, it seems a Skibidi universe is a matter of "when," not "if."
