Rowan Atkinson Returns
Brace yourself for more mayhem! Comedy legend Rowan Atkinson is returning to Netflix in a wildly funny sequel to his 2022 hit Man vs Bee. This time, the stakes are higher, the mess is bigger, and the opponent is… a baby?
Titled Man vs Baby, the new comedy series sees Atkinson once again diving headfirst into disaster — only now, instead of chasing an insect around a luxury home, he’s stuck with a far more unpredictable force of nature: a toddler.
What Is Man vs Baby About?
In Man vs Baby, Rowan Atkinson reprises his role as the bumbling but well-meaning Trevor, who now finds himself reluctantly roped into babysitting duties for a high-profile family. What begins as a simple one-day job quickly spirals into full-blown chaos, featuring exploding diapers, runaway prams, mysterious baby gadgets, and — in true Atkinson fashion — plenty of slapstick destruction.
Netflix teases the sequel as “an all-out war between one man’s nerves and one baby’s boundless energy.”
“It’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for… and this baby is never quiet,” Atkinson joked in a recent interview.
Same Trevor, Bigger Trouble
Man vs Bee was praised for its bite-sized, binge-worthy episodes and Atkinson’s timeless physical comedy. Fans can expect the same format in Man vs Baby, with short episodes packed with laugh-out-loud moments and viral potential.
Atkinson, best known globally for his role as Mr. Bean, brings his trademark expressions and impeccable timing to a whole new level of ridiculousness — whether he’s accidentally starting a fire with a bottle warmer or getting stuck in a bouncy castle.
New Cast, New Chaos
Joining Atkinson is a fresh cast, including a scene-stealing toddler (whose identity is being kept under wraps for now), as well as a host of colorful supporting characters: nosy neighbors, strict nannies, and one very suspicious delivery driver.
Directed by Man vs Bee creator David Kerr, the sequel promises to up the ante while keeping the heart and humor that made the original a hit.
When Will Man vs Baby Be Released?
Man vs Baby hits Netflix on December 11, 2025, just in time for the holiday season. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Atkinson’s iconic comedy or just looking for something fun to binge, this series promises to deliver laughter for viewers of all ages.
