Blue’s Clues, Fantasy Football Movies for Nickelodeon

Nickelodeon has unveiled a number of fresh highlights, including a Blue’s Clues movie, live-action The Fairly OddParents series, a Fantasy Football film and more.

Nickelodeon is celebrating 25 years of Blue’s Clues with a brand-new original movie and an array of anniversary initiatives across multiple platforms. The Blue’s Clues & You! movie will follow Josh and Blue as they head to New York City to audition for a big Broadway musical. Nickelodeon Animation Studio will start production on the movie this summer, with additional details to be announced at a later date.

The milestone anniversary will also be marked by a multi-tiered partnership with the global nonprofit organization Save the Children, a TV tentpole event, nostalgia-driven music video, exclusive consumer products programs and more.

Nickelodeon Studios and Paramount+ are prepping The Fairly OddParents (working title), an all-new original series based on the Emmy Award-winning animated show. Combining live-action and animation, the 13-episode first season will pick up years after the original series ended. Production on the series is underway in Los Angeles with a debut slated for later this year on Paramount+.

Nickelodeon and Awesomeness Films are working on the original live-action movie Fantasy Football, executive produced by The SpringHill Company (Space Jam: A New Legacy), led by LeBron James and Maverick Carter and in partnership with Marsai Martin and Joshua Martin of Genius Entertainment (Little). In Fantasy Football, 15-year-old Carmen Coleman (Marsai Martin, black-ish) discovers she can control her professional football player dad’s prowess on the field through her video game.

Additionally, Nickelodeon and Awesomeness Films are collaborating on Hush Hush, a film adaptation of the New York Times best-selling YA novels by Becca Fitzpatrick. Hush Hush follows 16-year-old high school student Nora Grey, who befriends new student, Patch, and finds herself drawn to his brooding charm against her better judgment. As Nora starts seeking answers about who Patch really is, she unwittingly gets caught in the crosshairs of an ancient battle between fallen angels and the immortal.

Both films are scheduled to bow in 2022.

Fantasy Football and Hush Hush will debut on Paramount+ and follow the upcoming launch of The J Team, which premieres on Paramount+ on September 3. The J Team marked the first production under the Nickelodeon and Awesomeness Live-Action Film Studio.
