Mark Edward Fischbach (/ˈfɪʃˌbɑːk/ FISH-bahk; born June 28, 1989), known online as Markiplier, is an American YouTuber, actor and filmmaker.[2] He mainly uploads Let's Plays and is known for his videos of indie horror games.[3] After joining YouTube in 2012, Fischbach became popular on the platform with Let's Plays of Amnesia: The Dark Descent (2010) and the Five Nights at Freddy's series.

In the following years, he went on a live tour, started a clothing line named Cloak, wrote and directed the YouTube Original series A Heist with Markiplier (2019) and In Space with Markiplier (2022), and hosted or co-hosted several podcasts—two of which reached No. 1 on Spotify. In 2023, Fischbach moved to United Talent Agency. In April 2023, Fischbach announced he was leading production of the horror film Iron Lung, which will be his theatrical film debut.
