The creator of Love, Death + Robots, Tim Miller, recently explained in an interview how MrBeast came to star in one of the episodes of the show's latest season. Miller told ScreenRant earlier this month that the YouTuber was a big fan of the show and has posters of it in his house, which led him to think about a role for MrBeast to cast in.

What's more, according to Tim Miller, the role of a villainous game master for the episode 'The Screaming of the Tyrannosaur' reminded him of the Beast Games, MrBeast's own game show on Prime Video, which led him to cast the YouTuber in that role.

While comparing Season 4 Episode 7 of Love, Death + Robots with Beast Games, Tim said:

"He's [MrBeast] a huge fan, a huge nerd, and so I knew that he wanted to be in a part of a story if we could find the right one. So, what better than an evil game master who takes such delight in putting these poor, helpless people through all these trials? It felt just like a Beast Games episode."

Tim Miller also noted that MrBeast, who is closing in on the 400 million subscriber milestone on YouTube, also brings a huge audience to the show.

In related news, MrBeast recently announced that Prime Video had renewed Beast Games for Seasons 2 and 3, meaning fans can expect the YouTuber to host two more seasons of his game show in the near future.
