After the success of his recreation of Squid Game, Netflix's surprise hit series of 2021, the YouTuber began working on his next big video. He teased that it would be bigger than Squid Game, eventually letting fans know that it would be inspired by the 1971 film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

MrBeast would obviously play the role of Willy Wonka, considering he owns Feastables, his own brand of chocolate. He purchased a warehouse and transformed it into a chocolate factory reminiscent of the movie, The ensemble comprised of trees made of lollipops, a marshmallow padded room and the signature chocolate river running down the middle of the factory.

Also staying faithful to the movie, he invited ten guests via golden tickets placed inside his Feastables brand chocolate bars. These ten contestants would compete against each other in a series of challenges, with the grand prize being the deed to the chocolate factory.

Although there were many obstacles throughout the video, the finale was the standout. The final three contestants faced off in a dessert cook-off judged by none other than celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.

Ramsay chose the winner, who received the deed to the chocolate factory. Given it's an impractical prize, MrBeast offered the winner a deal where he would buy back the warehouse in exchange for half a million dollars in cash. The winner accepted.

The video was an instant success, receiving 35 million views in one day. He thanked fans on Twitter for their support.

"The video took months to make and obviously millions of dollars, I'm so glad it's doing well."

It looks like the hard work and money spent has once again paid off for MrBeast.
