Jackass 5 Bam Margera Return: How the Franchise Star Rejoined Without Filming New Stunts
Bam Margera will return to Jackass 5 on June 26, 2026, via archival footage. Discover how Paramount and Margera reached a deal after years of legal disputes.
The hatchet's buried, but they're not shaking hands just yet. Bam Margera, the former pro skater whose exit from the franchise was anything but clean, is officially set to appear in the newly announced Jackass 5.
The Archival Deal for Jackass 5 Bam Margera Appearance
According to Entertainment Weekly, Margera isn't actually returning to the set. Instead, Paramount Pictures negotiated a deal to use archival footage from previous productions. This means fans will see him on screen, but he won't be filming any new material for the sequel, which is slated to hit theaters on June 26, 2026.
Johnny Knoxville confirmed the project's existence on Wednesday, telling fans that "Jackass is back" this summer. While the core crew is expected to return, Margera's inclusion via old footage serves as a complex resolution to years of public feuding and legal battles.
