Sidemen, through a mysterious video, announced their collaboration with Netflix. What does it consist of?
A mysterious announcement appeared on the profile of the popular YouTuber group Sidemen, which includes KSI, Miniminter, Zerkaa, Tobjizzle, Behzinga, Vikkstar123 and Wroetoshaw, on X, suggesting their cooperation with Netflix. A short clip, consisting of logos, was signed with the word "soon." The Sidemen only revealed more information a few hours later, or rather a new video that reveals a bit of the mystery.
Netflix released the same teaser on TikTok. As it turns out, it will be a project called The Sidemen Story, which, as it turns out, will be a very personal documentary. Unfortunately, according to the information given by the streaming giant, it's scheduled to be available on the platform only in the United Kingdom. The premiere is set for February 14th.
