The film stars original Jackass members Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Wee Man, Preston Lacy, Dave England, and Danger Ehren, along with new members Poopies, Zach Holmes, Jasper Dolphin, Rachel Wolfson, and Eric Manaka, who all became new members in the previous Jackass film.[2] It is scheduled for theatrical release on June 26, 2026.

Production

Development

On 6 November 2025, Steve-O said that they had a number of Zoom calls to discuss the 25th anniversary of Jackass. "What we landed on was a bit more ambitious than timely, but this next year, we're likely to see the Jackass franchise rear its ugly head", he said.[8]

Johnny Knoxville announced the film on his official Instagram account on January 8, 2026.[9] During his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on January 15, 2026, he said that he cannot do any stunts that can lead to a concussion anymore,[5] as in Jackass Forever (2022), he got a broken rib, a broken wrist, a concussion, and brain hemorrhage during a stunt with a bull.[10]

Steve-O said on his podcast that the movie will be a mix of old and new footage.[4] He also said the movie will serve as a celebration of the entire franchise, bringing back the best bits of the TV show and previous movies, along with brand new ones, and never-before-seen footage.[11]

Bam Margera, who was fired from the production of Jackass Forever, will only appear in the new movie through archived footage.[3] Bam himself later said that he will not film new scenes for the upcoming film.[12]

Knoxville said Jackass 5 will be the last Jackass film. "This is the natural place to end", he said.[13]

Filming

Principal photography started in late February 2026, with the entire main cast of Jackass Forever returning.[5] The opening sequence was filmed for five days, along with some smaller bits.[14] Filming wrapped on 13 March 2026.[15]

They tried doing a stunt with Dave England's one testicle, by wanting to add another one that lights up in the empty spot.[16]

Injuries

Dave England ruptured a tendon in his right middle finger after trying to dig a coin out of new cast member Zach Holmes' ass.[16]

Release

The film is scheduled for theatrical release on June 26, 2026.[17]
