Fresh from unveiling a super sneak-peek at Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie at San Diego Comic Con 2017, Nickelodeon USA has launched the networks official Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie movie website, nick.com/heyarnold!
Nickelodeon USA's official Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie website currently features information about the networks upcoming television movie, plus fantastic video clips giving fans a first-look at the film, including the "The Legend of Arnold" short released at SDCC 2017!
Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie takes the kids on the field trip of a lifetime: action packed and full of adventure! They’ll join Arnold on a quest in which he’ll try to achieve his ultimate dream and finally find his missing parents. It all starts when Arnold and his classmates take a trip to San Lorenzo, South America, which, coincidentally, is the last place Arnold’s parents were seen! Their trip takes a turn when pirates kidnap Arnold and his friends! From there it’s one jungle hazard after another, and the gang must put their heads together to get out of danger. As the leader of the journey, Arnold must make sure he and his friends survive safely, all while working towards a reunion he’s dreamt of his whole life!
The two-hour TV movie features a storyline that picks up from where the original series ended in the "The Journal" in 2004 and resolves unanswered questions and plotlines-including Arnold finally getting answers about the whereabouts of his missing parents, Arnold's last name, and how Arnold feels about Helga!
