Sidemen - Inside USA

Netflix's Inside: USA

The content powerhouse The Sidemen have officially taken their hit reality competition, "Inside," to the global stage with the new Netflix series, "Inside: USA." Launching on Netflix on September 21, 2025, this new iteration immediately captured attention, bringing the viral concept—where contestants battle their own impulses to protect a massive cash prize—to American soil.

The series features twelve celebrities and top internet personalities from across TV, sport, and digital culture—including stars like Selling Sunset's Bre Tiesi, NBA Champion Dwight Howard, and former Love Islander Ekin-Su—all locked in a house and competing for a staggering $1 million prize pot. However, with everything from a simple coffee to a pillow costing a chunk of the total, the ultimate challenge is self-control.

 

Behind the Scenes of a Mega-Production

 

Filming "Inside: USA" was a significant technical undertaking designed to capture every moment of temptation and betrayal. A vast network of over 40 PTZ and 5 studio cameras were employed, all running on a dedicated fiber infrastructure to ensure seamless coverage across the expansive location. This comprehensive setup fed directly into a large-scale gallery, providing switchable video positions for the director, show runners, and a team of loggers and hot-head operators.

To keep the non-local production team connected, the setup included a secure, low-latency video feed. Live, controlled graphics were transmitted to multiple large monitors placed throughout the set, adding to the high-stakes environment. Cutting-edge Skaarhoj PTZ control panels enabled quick and precise switching between all cameras and monitors. Over 16 distinct video feeds were constantly monitored and recorded 24/7 throughout the shoot, with footage ingested immediately to enable editors to begin work without delay. The demanding production schedule required operators, assistants, DITs, and engineers working on rotating shifts to maintain continuous, round-the-clock coverage.

"Inside: USA" promises to blend the Sidemen's signature chaos and comedy with high-stakes reality TV, ensuring it’s one of the most talked-about premieres of the year.
