On July 22, 2017, Jake released a statement on Twitter saying that he had “outgrown” the Disney Channel and was leaving Bizaardvark.
Apologising to his fans for the “crazy news”, he described his time with the network as “a dream come true” but said it was “time to move forward in my career”.

Paul also made a few film appearances, helping his brother Logan co-write the film Airplane Mode, which was released in 2020.
He also had roles in the movies Dance Camp and Mono.
