Lionsgate announced Friday that three big names in the YouTube prank community have joined forces for a movie called Natural Born Pranksters.

This news comes hot on the heels of Lionsgate announcing a feature-length movie starring YouTubers Grace Helbig, Hannah Hart, and Mamrie Hart.
The studio is also developing both a film with The Janoskians and Freddie Wong’s RocketJump Hulu series.
Basically, it’s a good time to be a YouTuber who knows someone at Lionsgate.
