Michael Bay’s “Skibidi Toilet” Begins Production

Filmmaker Michael Bay’s upcoming “Skibidi Toilet” movie has officially begun production.

The controversial animated online sensation is making the jump from digital video shorts and a film which was announced back in July last year. Bay and former Paramount Pictures president Adam Goodman have been developing the project.

Created by Alexey Gerasimov, the short began as an 11-second video uploaded to YouTube in which a head emerges from a toilet singing. Since then, many videos have emerged depicting an escalating war between the Toilets and the Cyborgs.

Invisible Narratives, the newly formed digital content studio headed by Goodman, offered an update today confirming production had started. Invisible Narratives is producing, developing, and financing the film.

Bay has reportedly been working with his creative team on the project since last summer including Oscar-nominated production designer Jeffrey Beecroft (“12 Monkeys,” “Transformers”) and Oscar-winning VFX supervisor Rob Legato (“Titanic,” “Avatar”).

Bay remains best known for his work on blockbusters like the first two “Bad Boys” films along with “Armageddon,” “The Rock” and multiple “Transformers” films.

He’s reportedly soon set to team with “Euphoria” star Sydney Sweeney on the live-action film adaptation of the arcade video game series “OutRun”.
