NICKELODEON SCANDINAVIA TO PREMIERE NEW ORIGINAL TV MOVIE BLURT IN APRIL 2018
STARRING HENRY DANGER’S JACE NORMAN, JOJO SIWA AND DANIELLA PERKINS
Nickelodeon Scandinavia will premiere a new original TV movie, Blurt (formerly Inside Voice), on Saturday 14th April 2018 at 16:00 on Nickelodeon Denmark (Danmark) and Nickelodeon Sweden (Sverige), and on Sunday 15th April 2018 at 15:00 on Nickelodeon Norway (Norge)! Starring Jace Norman (Henry Danger, Splitting Adam, Rufus), JoJo Siwa (Lip Sync Battle Shorties) and Daniella Perkins (Knight Squad), the live-action comedy tells the story of Jeremy Martin (Jace Norman) who, after a comical virtual reality mishap, starts speaking every thought he has out loud and to complicate matters, he happens to be running in the school election. The film is locally titled Uden Filter in Denmark and Utan Filter in Sweden.
Jeremy Martin is a nice-guy and when he puts on mysterious virtual reality glasses at the mall, he suddenly loses his “inside voice” and starts spouting every thought he has out loud. Making matters worse, Jeremy is running for student council president against his classmate Milly (Daniella Perkins), who is full of great ideas to improve the school. Desperate to get back to normal, Jeremy and his sister Victoria (JoJo Siwa) must figure out how to convince his brain that he can speak up for himself. Can they do it, or will Jeremy be stuck saying his thoughts out loud forever?!
The virtual reality sequences featured in the movie are being developed and created by Nickelodeon’s Entertainment Lab, the network’s new division spearheading long-range research and development efforts around new technologies for Nick and its audience. Blurt is the second on-air project fed through the lab, following Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library.
Blurt is executive produced by Scott McAboy and Michael Sammaciccia. Amy Sydorick is serving as producer. Jace Norman is serving as co-producer. The TV movie was written by Adrian Vina (Liar, Liar Vampire) and is directed by Michelle Johnston (Another Cinderella Story: If The Shoe Fits).
Blurt made its world debut on Nickelodeon USA on Monday 19th February 2018, and will be rolling out on Nickelodeon channels worldwide throughout 2018.
