The Tubi Original Movie Premiered on the Platform In Nov. at No.1 in the US & Canada, Drawing the Biggest Number of Viewers of any Title in its First Week

SAN FRANCISCO, February 5, 2025 - Tubi (www.tubi.tv), Fox Corporation's (NASDAQ: FOXA, FOX) ad-supported video-on-demand service, today announced it has greenlit a yet to be titled sequel to its wildly successful Tubi Original, SIDELINED: THE QB AND ME with its stars Noah Beck and Siena Agudong set to reprise their roles as "Drayton" and "Dallas" respectively. Justin Wu will also return to direct, with Thunderbird Entertainment's Great Pacific Media, Marshall Arts and Wattpad WEBTOON Studios producing. Blue Fox Entertainment is the international sales agent for the sequel and will launch sales on the title at the European Film Market in Berlin next month.

Based on Wattpad sensation "The QB Bad Boy and Me" by Tay Marley, the sequel will focus on freshman star quarterback Drayton (Noah Beck) as he struggles with the weight of expectations after a devastating setback, while dancer Dallas (Siena Agudong) begins to question the future she thought she wanted. As their high school relationship begins to unravel under the pressures of distance and self-discovery, they'll learn that the bravest versions of themselves emerge when they let life redirect them.

"At Tubi, we listen to our viewers, and their overwhelming response to SIDELINED: THE QB AND ME made putting a sequel into play an easy decision to give our audiences more of what they love," said Adam Lewinson, Chief Content Officer, Tubi. "We're so thrilled to have our stars back - Noah and Siena - who really captivated audiences with their engaging performances and will no doubt bring their on-screen chemistry back with the sequel."

"From the very beginning, Sidelined: The QB & Me was something special - featuring an outstanding cast, an incredible team, and a story that truly resonated with audiences. With Noah, Siena, Wattpad, Justin, and our entire creative team returning, this sequel is a testament to the impact of the original film." said Lindsay Macadam and McKenna Marshall, Producers. "Noah's influence continues to grow, making this more than just a continuation - it's a celebration of the power of fan-driven storytelling. We're excited to continue this journey and our incredible partnership with Tubi and Wattpad."

In its first week, SIDELINED: THE QB AND ME held the #1 spot in both the US and Canada on Tubi. In both markets, the movie drew the biggest number of viewers of any title on Tubi in its first seven days and also brought in the most new viewers for a title to date. The movie also landed at number five on Variety's Streaming Originals Chart, the week of Friday, December 6th.

The yet to be titled sequel will be produced by McKenna Marshall, Adam Wescott, Maxwell Mitcheson, Lindsay Macadam and Jason Fischer, and Wattpad WEBTOON Studios' Aron Levitz, David Madden and Jason Goldberg. James Hunstman, Lisa Gutberlet, Kalani Dreimanis are executive producing for Blue Fox Entertainment, and David Way, Tony Chung and Lori Massini are executive producing for Thunderbird Entertainment's Great Pacific Media alongside Noah Beck, Siena Agudong, Crystal Ferreiro and Justin Wu.
