No one expected that Iron Lung, the movie made by some random YouTuber for just 3 million dollars, would end up grossing more than 50 million globally. But of course, they underestimated the Markiplier community and a Guinness World Record that grabs attention: 300,000 liters of fake blood, smashing the previous record (held by the Evil Dead remake with 190,000 liters).
Now, as a thank you, the director is not going to play with our feelings and is going to release his movie directly on the platform that gave him success.
Blood in torrents!
“I am loyal to YouTube,” Markiplier has stated while announcing that Iron Lung will be available to everyone on May 31. That is, very soon. However, it will break several hearts along the way, as it will be available for purchase and classified as a “YouTube exclusive.” In other words, you will have to pay up anyway.
For now, Markiplier has not revealed what his next project will be, as he needs at least some time to rest between projects, but he will be working on something next year. Something other than enjoying his new and well-earned millions of dollars, of course.
Right now, his channel has over 38 million subscribers and 23 billion views, and he continues to upload videos gradually. Frankly, as long as what he does remains high quality and stays true to his audience, it is likely that he will continue to grow, and we will be talking about one of the most important creators of the future. Make sure to remember his name, because the best horror always came from small directors that no one would bet a dime on.
