| Title | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Untitled Ren & Stimpy animated film | Cancelled | In May 1993, Nickelodeon announced a two-year picture deal with 20th Century Fox to produce some of its movies, including its IPs such as the aforementioned Ren & Stimpy, though it was reconsidered as an ill fit for the children's market overall, and would have likely ran into creative issues with creator John Kricfalusi (who would be forced out several months after the deal was announced).[24] Fox's film deal with Nick expired when Viacom purchased Paramount Pictures in 1994 leaving Paramount to distribute and co-produce the network's theatrically released films. |
| Untitled Doug animated film | Franchise shifted to Disney | Nickelodeon was also making a Doug film adaptation in 1993 when they made a deal with 20th Century Fox to make films based on their properties along with other films based on other Nickelodeon properties. When Viacom acquired Paramount Pictures in 1994 the idea was killed and the deal ended quietly the next year. In 1996, the show's studio, Jumbo Studios was acquired by Disney and a film based on the Disney version of the series (known as Disney's Doug to differentiate from the original series) was released by Walt Disney Pictures in 1999, Doug's 1st Movie.[25] [26] |
| Elmo Aardvark film adaptation | Cancelled | Shortly after the release of the 1995 Elmo Aardvark album, Will Ryan was approached by Nickelodeon Movies about starring the Elmo character in a feature film. Ryan and writer Phil Lollar developed a film treatment for a mockumentary tracing Elmo's fictional history as a cartoon character, from pre-film origins to the present day some hundred years later. The mockumentary, potentially titled The Elmo Aardvark Story, would feature live-action interviews with figures who would add historical credibility, such as golden-age animator Ward Kimball; these would be interspersed with clips of the Elmo cartoons that had supposedly been produced through the ages, animated in period-appropriate styles. Designer Leslie Cabarga prepared promotional art, while Fayard Nicholas, Joanie Sommers, and "Weird Al" Yankovic were in talks to contribute to the soundtrack. However, negotiations with Nickelodeon administrators became slow-moving, and after a lengthy "development hell" period, the project fell through. |
| Bone | In the late 1990s, an attempt was made through Nickelodeon Movies to produce a film based on the Bone comics. Jeff Smith, author of the Bone comics, stated in a 2003 interview that Nickelodeon had insisted on the Bone cousins being voiced by child actors and wanted the film's soundtrack to include pop songs by the likes of N'Sync. Smith's response was that nobody would insert pop songs in the middle of The Lord of the Rings or The Empire Strikes Back and therefore pop songs should not be placed in Bone either.[27] The film was then developed at Warner Bros. under their Warner Bros. Pictures Animation banner instead. However, in 2019, Netflix purchased the rights to turn Bone into an animated series, which was later cancelled in April 2022 during a reorganization of Netflix Animation.[28] [29] [30] | |
| Prometheus and Bob | A live-action Prometheus and Bob film was announced in 1998 as an adaptation of the KaBlam! series.[31] The film was to be produced by Amy Heckerling and directed by Harald Zwart, but the film later fell through due to lack of interest. | |
| Released as a TV Movie in 2017 | In 1998, Nickelodeon offered Hey Arnold! creator Craig Bartlett a chance to develop two feature-length films based on the series: one as a TV movie or direct-to-video and another slated for a theatrical release. Nickelodeon asked Bartlett to do "the biggest idea he could think of" for the theatrical film. Albie Hecht, who was president of Nickelodeon at the time, suggested to Bartlett about making the theatrical feature as a spiritual sequel/follow-up to the episode "Parents Day", and have Arnold try to solve the mystery of what happened to his parents. Though after successful test screenings of the made-for-TV movie titled Arnold Saves the Neighborhood, it was decided that it would instead be given a theatrical release in 2002, under the title of to attract the attention of the public. Around this time, Hecht also asked Bartlett to produce a special one-hour 'prequel' episode titled "The Journal" that would serve as a lead-in to the second movie. The episode debuted on November 11, 2002. But due to the disappointing box office results of the first film, Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie was cancelled and ended up leaving the original series with an unresolved cliffhanger ending. The project was later revived as a two-hour TV film that debuted on November 24, 2017. | |
| How to Eat Fried Worms | Moved to New Line Cinema | In October 1998, Nickelodeon bought the film rights to the children's book How to Eat Fried Worms from Universal Pictures.[32] The film was to be directed by Thomas Schlamme and produced by Imagine Entertainment. Joe Nussbaum later replaced Schlamme as director in June 2000.[33] Eventually, the film was released by New Line Cinema and Walden Media, with the film's screenwriter Bob Dolman directing his own script, in 2006.[34] |
| Sector 7 | Development Hell | In May 2000, Nickelodeon won a bidding war against Pixar in acquiring the film rights to the novel Sector 7 with Darren Aronofsky attached to direct and produce with Good Machine as co-producer. As of March 2019, the project remains in development hell.[35] |
| Ectokid | Unknown | After the cancellation of Razorline, Barker sold the television and film rights of the Ectokid series to Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures in 2001. The film was set to have Barker, Don Murphy, and Nickelodeon's Albie Hecht and Julia Pistor as producers, Joe Daley as executive producer, and Karen Rosenfelt overseeing development at Paramount. Barker would also act as executive producer of the television series, with Daley and Murphy as producers. Talking to Daily Variety, Barker explained that his aim was to create "a franchisable world" for the studio, "of great, transcendent beauty; one that reconfigures people's expectations of what ghosts are, of what comes after death."[36] As of November 2018, no further information regarding both the film and the television series surfaced, presumably both were cancelled. |
| Jimmy Neutron 2 | Cancelled | In February 2002, a sequel for was reported in development for a summer 2004 release.[37] Producer Albie Hecht reported to The Los Angeles Times that the sequel "would be made on the same budget as the first, but with a new batch of inventions and adventures in Jimmy's town of Retroville." On June 20, 2002, The Hollywood Reporter reported that writer Kate Boutilier had signed a writing deal with Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures to write a sequel, but it never materialized.[38] The film was cancelled because the writers couldn't agree on a story and Alcorn later stated in an interview that "once the TV series came out, there wasn't a lot of incentive to make a movie when fans could simply watch Jimmy Neutron for free at home."[39] |
| Imaginary Friend | In March 2002, it was announced that Nickelodeon Movies would produce Imaginary Friend, a Gary Ross-helmed live-action/animated hybrid about a boy and his imaginary friend who takes him from the real world to an animated fantasy world. Written by Anne Spielberg, the film would’ve reunited Ross and Spielberg after scripting the 1988 Oscar-nominated Big. Would've been produced by Nickelodeon and Ross' Larger Than Life.[40] [41] | |
| Sequels to Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events | Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies hoped that Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events would become a series like the Harry Potter film series.[42] Jim Carrey thought his character would be good as the basis for a film franchise since it would allow him to dive into a new role.[43] "I don't have a deal [for a sequel], but it's one that I wouldn't mind doing again because there are so many characters," the actor explained in December 2004. "I mean, it's just so much fun. It's so much fun being a bad actor playing a character..."[44] In May 2005, producer Laurie MacDonald said "Lemony Snicket is still something Paramount is interested in pursuing and we're going to be talking with them more."[45] In October 2008, Daniel Handler said that "a sequel does seem to be in the works. Paramount has had quite a few corporate shakeups, which has led to many a delay. Of course, many, many plans in Hollywood come to naught, but I'm assured that another film will be made. Someday. Perhaps."[46] In June 2009, Silberling confirmed he still talked about the project with Handler, and suggested the sequel be a stop motion film, with each film being in a new medium, due to the young lead actors having grown too old to continue their roles. "In an odd way, the best thing you could do is actually have Lemony Snicket say to the audience, 'Okay, we pawned the first film off as a mere dramatization with actors. Now, I'm afraid I'm going to have to show you the real thing.'"[47] The franchise ran a live-action series for 3 seasons on Netflix. | |
| The Anybodies film adaptation | Unknown | In December 2004, Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon acquired the film rights from the book series of the same name.[48] [49] [50] It was originally set to be released sometime in 2006,[51] but it has not been released since then. |
| The Smurfs | In 2006, Paramount obtained the film rights to The Smurfs comics by Peyo and were planning to make a film based on the characters with Nickelodeon Movies. It was described to be an "epic-comedic fantasy", like The Lord of the Rings meets The Princess Bride. The film never came to be until Sony bought the rights thus turning it into the 2011 film of the same name. | |
| Untitled The Fairly OddParents animated film | Cancelled | In 2005 or 2006, Butch Hartman considered making a theatrical adaptation of his animated television series The Fairly OddParents after the show's initial cancellation in 2006, to be produced by Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures. The film was to be animated much like the series as well as previous Nickelodeon fare such as the Rugrats trilogy and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, but was scrapped due to a management change at Paramount although the script was already written. Despite this, Hartman expressed interest in releasing the film for DVD someday, and stated that the script could serve for another TV movie of the show. The series ended on July 26, 2017, and Butch Hartman left Nickelodeon in early 2018 before moving to Sony Pictures Animation to plan any direct-to-video sequels to the original film,[52] [53] seemingly ending any chances of the film happening.[54] |
| Sequels to The Last Airbender | The Last Airbender, released in 2010, was originally intended to be the first film in a live-action film trilogy each based on the series' three seasons. Due to the poor reception of the film, Nickelodeon and Paramount decided to put further plans for the sequels on hold. In September 2018, a new unrelated live-action remake of the original Avatar: The Last Airbender for Netflix was announced, effectively cancelling any lingering chances of possible sequels to the film.[55] | |
| Mighty Mouse | Moved to Paramount Animation | As early as 2004, Omation Animation Studios and Nickelodeon announced their intention to bring Mighty Mouse (a property held by CBS Corporation) back to the big screen with a CGI Mighty Mouse feature film that was tentatively scheduled to be released sometime in 2013.[56] This film never materialized and the project's fate was unknown until in 2019, when it was confirmed that the project would be revived by Paramount Animation, and that Jon and Erich Hoeber were announced to be the writers for the film.[57] [58] |
| The Adventures of Tintin: Prisoners of the Sun | Development Hell | In November 2011, Steven Spielberg announced a sequel to the 2011 film The Adventures of Tintin and was planned to be released sometime in the future.[59] As of 2019, there have been little to no info about the film, but Peter Jackson is still involved with the project.[60] [61] |
| Untitled Nicktoons film | Unknown | On January 27, 2016, a crossover film involving various classic Nicktoons characters was reported to be in development. Jared Hess was attached to direct, as well as co-write with his wife Jerusha. The film was said to be similar to Who Framed Roger Rabbit.[62] In a later interview in September 2016, Hess said that the script was complete and submitted for approval.[63] No word on development has been reported since. |
| Untitled Henry Danger film | Moved to Paramount+ | On May 5, 2017, former president of Viacom's Nickelodeon group, Cyma Zarghami, announced that a film based on the live-action series Henry Danger was in development, but no further information about the film occurred since its announcement for nearly 5 years. The series ended on March 21, 2020, and both Dan Schneider and Cyma Zarghami left Nickelodeon in 2018.[64] [65] However, in January 2022, it was announced that the movie is still in development with Jace Norman reprising his role as the title character and serving as executive producer. The movie is set to be released on Paramount+.[66] |
| Untitled Are You Afraid of the Dark? film | Cancelled | On November 13, 2017, it was announced that a film adaptation and reboot of Are You Afraid of the Dark? was in the works at Paramount Players, with a release date set for October 11, 2019. It writer Gary Dauberman was going to write the screenplay, Matt Kaplan was going to produce, and D.J. Caruso was going to direct the film.[67] [68] The film was removed from Paramount's release schedule on February 27, 2019, and a series revival instead premiered on October 11, 2019.[69] |
| Untitled Rugrats film | On July 16, 2018, Variety reported that a new Rugrats movie was in production alongside a revival of the series with a release date originally set for November 13, 2020. The movie would've been a live action/CGI hybrid, to be written by David Goodman and would be produced by Paramount Players, a division of Paramount Pictures.[70] [71] [72] On February 28, 2019, it was announced that the movie would be pushed back to January 29, 2021.[73] On April 26, 2019, it was announced that David Bowers would be set as director, along with Karen Rosenfelt as producer.[74] However, on November 12, 2019, the film was pulled from Paramount's release schedule, in favor of WWE Studios' Rumble, which was delayed from a July 2020 release.[75] |
