Dude Perfect’s sports and comedy videos are getting a Disney collaboration spanning entertainment, sports, consumer products, parks and experiences. The companies announced the creative partnership on October 15, 2026, with plans involving Marvel, Star Wars and the Super Bowl.
Dude Perfect will develop original content for its own channels inspired by Disney franchises and events. Select Dude Perfect content will also appear on Disney+, giving the collaboration another home beyond the group’s channels.
Avengers, Star Wars and Super Bowl plans
- Super Bowl LXI: Content connected to the sporting event.
- Star Wars: A collaboration tied to the 50th anniversary of Star Wars.
The agreement also covers existing videos. Disney gains access to a selection of Dude Perfect’s short-form library for distribution across Disney+, ESPN and Disney social platforms.
Disney’s Chief Marketing and Brand Officer Asad Ayaz praised Dude Perfect’s “distinctive voice” and “inventive approach.”
“Disney has always been a place where great storytellers come to create,” Ayaz said.
Ayaz said the partnership builds on a longstanding relationship between the companies. Its aim is to give fans more ways to experience and participate in Disney stories.
A Disney parks challenge came before it
The companies have collaborated before. Last year, Dude Perfect attempted to visit all 12 Disney Parks around the world in under 75 hours. The challenge was an attempt to break the world record.
That adventure became the channel’s second-best-performing YouTube upload in its first 24 hours. It generated more than 13 million views.
A fundraising campaign connected to the video drove more than $1.2 million in donations to Make-A-Wish.
Dude Perfect co-founder Garrett Hilbert called the group “Disney kids forever.” He recalled “wearing out the VHS tape of The Lion King” and making family memories at Disney World.
Hilbert credited Disney with teaching the group to “go big and dream,” helping shape what Dude Perfect has built. He said the partnership would let the group bring more of those dreams to life with Disney’s team.
Dude Perfect has 130 million followers and more than 22 billion lifetime views. Its entertainment business includes original content, live touring, the Almost Athletes podcast and consumer products.
