Rowan Atkinson Returns in Chaotic First Look at Netflix Comedy ‘Man vs Baby’
Rowan Atkinson is back with a new round of festive chaos in Man vs. Baby, a fresh Netflix comedy series and a follow-up to his 2022 hit Man vs. Bee.
The first trailer for the show has just dropped, giving fans a glimpse of Atkinson’s return as the well-meaning but accident-prone Trevor Bingley.
Created and written by Atkinson and William Davies, the series will premiere on Netflix on December 11. It will feature four half-hour episodes, once again directed by David Kerr, who previously worked with Atkinson on Man vs. Bee.
It’s beginning to look a lot like…chaos!

This time, Trevor is trying to live a calmer life after the disaster of his last adventure. He’s now working as a school caretaker, hoping for some peace. But things take a turn when he accepts a high-paying Christmas job looking after a fancy penthouse. According to Netflix, “when no one collects the Baby Jesus from the school nativity, Trevor finds himself with an unexpected companion over the holidays.”
Production for Man vs. Baby began in December 2024, under HouseSitter Productions. The series reunites Atkinson and Davies with the same creative team behind the first show. Chris Clark and William Davies serve as executive producers, with Kate Fasulo as the series producer.
The new trailer shows Atkinson back in top physical comedy form, mixing slapstick humor with heartwarming holiday spirit. Fans of Man vs. Bee will recognize the same chaotic energy, but this time with a festive twist.
