Vic Michaelis Shifts From Internet Comedy to Peacock’s “Ponies”

Vic Michaelis, a Canadian‑raised comedian who first drew million‑view audiences on Dropout’s "Very Important People" (Season 3 released late 2025, 15.2 million YouTube subscribers), now stars in Peacock’s espionage comedy "Ponies" alongside Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson. The jan 24 2026 interview reveals Michaelis’s aspiration to star in a disaster film such as "Twisters" and his playful plan to launch an MLM selling earthquake‑preparation kits. Beyond “Ponies,” he’s also voicing Roona in the newly‑announced "Star Wars: Zero Company" set to release later this year. Michaelis hopes to return to Toronto for future projects, citing the city as his favorite.
