Kevin Kopelow And Heath Seifert Enter Development Deal At Nickelodeon

In a recent interview with Just Jared Jr., Kevin Kopelow and Heath Seifert revealed that, following the success of the Nickelodeon Ho-Ho Holiday Special, in which the duo served as writers, the television writing and producing team have signed a deal to develop brand-new projects for Nickelodeon!:
What will be your first project after the [Austin & Ally] series finale? What are you hoping your fans will think about it?


Heath: The first thing we did right away was we produced a holiday special on Nickelodeon. That was really fun because we love doing variety and love doing sketch. The first show we really worked on as writers was All That a long time ago. So we were excited to do that kind of project that tapped into that side of our brains again.

Kevin: And now…we have a development deal over at Nickelodeon.

Heath: We're developing that here but we're trying to develop projects that involve the Austin & Ally cast as well.

Kevin: Our cast are growing up, so they're not kids anymore, but we're still hoping to work with all of them again as well.

Heath: We're also just checking passion projects off of our lists too, with one being that we're writing a horror movie that we've had an idea about for a while.
