Jackass 5, the upcoming installment in this series of stunt-comedies, is scheduled to be released theatrically on June 26, 2026, according to social media posts by star and co-Creator Johnny Knoxville this week. The key term is Jackass 5 while fans wait for more news.
Knoxville made this announcement on Instagram, which posted a teaser image of the franchise logo along with the date: “starting the year off with a bang! See you in theaters June 26th.”
Franchise Return After Four Years
This will be the first big release within the “Jackass” franchise since the 2022 release of “Jackass Forever,” which gathered the original cast, including Knoxville, “Steve-O,” and “Chris Pontius.”
Industry sources have also confirmed that Jackass 5 is an all-new film and not a re-release or compilation title, although no specifics on the storyline or stunts have been made known yet.
Cast Uncertainty and Archival Footage
While Knoxville’s return is a certainty, there has been no word yet on who else will take part. There are rumors that original Jackass star Bam Margera will feature via older footage, rather than new material, after his well-publicized disputes with the production team that led to him being absent from Jackass Forever.
Background on the Jackass Franchise
The Jackass series started off in 2000 as a reality show of outrageous stunts and pranks on MTV, expanding into a successful film franchise with distribution handled by Paramount Pictures. The fourth theatrical entry, entitled Jackass Forever, finally dropped in 2022, receiving both commercial success and attention for its high‑risk physical comedy.
As Jackass 5 moves toward its June 2026 release, fans and industry observers alike are closely watching for casting announcements, trailers, and further production information in the coming months.
