Nickelodeon UK to Premiere 'Monster High: The Movie' on Friday 7th October 2022

NICKELODEON UK TO PREMIERE LIVE-ACTION MONSTER HIGH: THE MOVIE MUSICAL IN OCTOBER 2022


Share it: @MonsterHigh #Nickelodeon #MonsterHighMovie

Nickelodeon UK & Ireland will premiere Monster High: The Movie, Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAT), Nickelodeon and Paramount+'s new live-action movie musical based on the iconic Monster High franchise about the children of famous monsters and creatures, on Friday 7th October 2022 at 6:00pm!

Monster High: The Movie follows Clawdeen Wolf (Miia Harris, Just Beyond), who was born half human and half werewolf, after she arrives at her new school, Monster High. She quickly makes friends with her classmates Frankie Stein (Ceci Balagot, Dispatches from Elsewhere) and Draculaura (Nayah Damasen, Grey's Anatomy), and for the first time in her life, Clawdeen feels like she has finally found a place where she fits in and can truly be herself, despite keeping her human half a secret. When a devious plan to destroy Monster High threatens to reveal her real identity, Clawdeen must learn to embrace her true monster heart and find a way to save the day alongside her new friends.

Monster High: The Movie will make its world premiere on Thursday, Oct. 6, at 7 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon USA and streams that same day on Paramount+. Internationally, the movie will premiere on Nickelodeon and Paramount+, beginning Oct. 6.


Monster High: The Movie also stars: Case Walker (The Other Two) as Deuce Gorgon; Kyle Selig (Mean Girls on Broadway) as Mr. Komos; Marci T. House (Day of the Dead) as Headmistress Bloodgood; Scotch Ellis Loring (Firehouse Dog) as Clawdeen’s dad, Apollo; Steve Valentine (Mom) as Draculaura’s dad, Dracula; Jy Prishkulnik (Just Beyond) as Cleo de Nile; Lina Lecompte (Death Pursuit) as Lagoona; Justin Derickson (When the Streetlights Go On) as Heath Burns; Lilah Fitzgerald (Honey Girls) as Ghoulia; and Nasiv Sall (Descendants 2) as Abbey Bominable. Additional fan-favorite characters from the Monster High universe will also be seen throughout the movie.

In addition to Monster High: The Movie, an animated series based off the beloved Mattel franchise is slated to premiere later this year on Nickelodeon. Both projects join other Mattel Television content in production, including series and specials based on Barbie, Masters of the Universe, Thomas & Friends, Polly Pocket, Pictionary and Fireman Sam, to name a few. Mattel first introduced Monster High in 2010, and it quickly became one of the most successful and beloved kids’ properties of all time. The franchise seeks to foster a more accepting world where everyone is proud to be their authentic self, which is more relevant than ever. Today, Monster High is back with a reimagined set of fangtastic characters, inspired by the original ghouls, for a new generation that embraces what makes them unique and rallies people everywhere to express themselves.


Monster High: The Movie is directed and executive produced by Todd Holland (The Real O'Neals, Malcolm in the Middle, Firehouse Dog). The story is by Jenny Jaffe (Big Hero 6: The Series, Rugrats), Greg Erb, and Jason Oremland (Princess and the Frog, Playmobil: The Movie), and the teleplay is by Jaffe and Billy & Matt Eddy (Zapped, Teen Beach Movie). Adam Bonnett (Descendants franchise, Masters of the Universe: Revelation) serves as executive producer. Frederic Soulie, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Mattel Television and Phil Breman, Vice President of Live Action Development, oversee the movie for Mattel and serve as executive producers. Production on Monster High: The Movie for Nickelodeon is overseen by Zack Olin and Shauna Phelan, Co-Heads of Nickelodeon & Awesomeness Live-Action, along with executives Lee Rosenthal, Linda Halder and Jules Kovisars.

'Kenan & Kel' Theme Song Singer Coolio Passes Away, Aged 59

In memory of Coolio, the singer of the iconic Kenan & Kel theme song "Aw, Here It Goes!," who sadly passed away, aged 59.


Following the news breaking of the rapper, record producer, actor, and philanthropist's death, Kenan & Kel stars Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell both remembered the "Gangsta's Paradise" and "Fantastic Voyage" singer, whose birthname was Artis Leon Ivey Jr., on Instagram.

Kenan took to his Instagram Stories to comment on the news, including a sadface emoji with the words, "Wait, now Coolio!!!" He followed this up with a repost of Questlove sharing a photo of Coolio and added, "Damn homie!!! Rest in Power!!!," and Kel reminisced about the times he met and talked to Coolio, posting clips from his appearance on All That and in the show's "Good Burger" sketch, saying: "Rest in Heaven @coolio ! We recently spoke a few months ago laughing and having such a good time. So many great memories with you bro! That time first meeting you on “All That” cracking up in a Good Burger Sketch then you bringing me on stage after your performance to freestyle. Then later creating the legendary Kenan and Kel theme song for @kenanthompson and I. You did an interview the day of filming the intro on Big Boys Neighborhood and all of Los Angeles was at Universal Studios city walk it was a party!! That time you heard about the Good Burger Pop up in Los Angeles and you hit me and the team up and said you wanted to make it part of your birthday weekend and we chopped it up! Last thing you told me when we last spoke a few months ago you told me you loved how I keep things positive and to keep doing that. I will Coolio and thank you for sharing your light and your talent with us all and thank you for inspiring so many in your lyrics. Be at peace in the hands of our Heavenly Father and praying God comforts your family during this time. Much love bro!!! 🙏🏾🙌🏽💪🏾"


While speaking with Entertainment Weekly in 2016 for the 20th anniversary of Kenan and Kel, Thompson and Mitchell, both 44, opened up about how they got the musician to craft their show's iconic opening tune, titled "Aw, Here It Goes," which was named after one of Mitchell's catchphrases.

"Shout out to Coolio," Thompson said at the time. "It was the best. He had been on All That before at that point, so we felt like we knew him. That's how you are when you're young, 'Oh yeah, Coolio's my best friend.' "

"That hook, the song still holds up today," Mitchell added to EW. "When I do [comedy] shows I'll play the Kenan & Kel theme song and come out to the stage to that or I've even been in the club and they play it."

Kel joined TMZ Live on Thursday (Sept. 29) where TMZ asked him about his experiences with Coolio. Kel says folks still ask him about the song, and he says Coolio brought the "magic" to the catchy track. Kel added that Coolio was like everyone's favorite uncle, because when he showed up at the function, it was a sure sign of a good time, and revealed that the last conversation he had with Coolio was a couple months before his death. It's clear Coolio made a big impression on Kel's life.

ET's Kevin Frazier spoke with Mitchell about Coolio crafting the theme song for his and Kenan Thompson's Nickelodeon show, Kenan & Kel, and the way he found out about the "Gangsta's Paradise" rapper's death.

"I was here at the house with the kids, and I was on social media, and I saw under someone else's page like, 'Oh yeah, RIP Coolio,' and I'm like 'Wait, wait, wait,'" Mitchell explained. "I said, 'Hold on,' and then I started looking around and saw it was true."

He continued, "Then my phone started blowing up, and everybody hit me up about it."

Mitchell's friendship with Coolio was decades long, with the pair first meeting on the set of All That.

"Awesome," Mitchell said of the first time he met the late rapper. "One thing I say about Coolio and my experience with him all the time, is that he was always a great time. Always had a smile on his face, always cracking a joke. First time I met him was on All That, I believe it was our first season, and he was in a Good Burger sketch, and his comedic timing was so amazing."

"Also, a great actor," he added. "And then after that, he performed on the show."

Mitchell, who used to rap as well, said Coolio once brought him onstage during a performance to freestyle with him. "He brought me up onstage, and you gotta imagine that, like, this is my first show, first season, and then Coolio, who's like an amazing rapper on the radio at that time, brings me onstage to freestyle with him," Mitchell recalled. "[This] was such a big moment for me, 'cause I was a fan, you know what I mean?"

Not long after, Coolio went on to craft the theme song for Kenan & Kel, something that came naturally after building a friendship with Mitchell and the producers and writers at All That.

"A lot of the entertainers that would come on All That, ended up hanging out with us, and staying friends with the producers and the writers, which was super awesome, and when we did the spinoff, and him doing the Kenan & Kel theme song, that was awesome," Mitchell gushed.

"I mean, I remember him telling Big Boy's Neighborhood on the radio out here, that we were gonna be shooting at Universal CityWalk, and I mean, everybody was there. I'm talking all of Los Angeles. It was a big party. That's what people can see on the other side of the camera, that's why you see the energy is so high," he continued. "It was just such an awesome moment, and that song still goes, like, people play it in the clubs, and play it everywhere, and it says a lot to his lyrics."

They stayed in contact too, remaining friends long after Mitchell's days on All That and Kenan & Kel. In fact, the Game Shakers actor revealed that he had even spoken to Coolio just a few months ago.

"I was doing a project for iHeart, and I reached out to Coolio, told him to come on, and we were able to talk," Mitchell shared. "He was in the U.K., I knew it was very, very early, but he agreed to do it, which was super awesome, and we just had a real conversation which was so awesome.

"I remember at the end of the conversation, he told me, 'Now you know it's early out here in the U.K., I'm on tour, but when I heard that you were doing this, I had to come and talk to you, and I just love the positivity that you always have and I want you to keep that positivity and the positive projects, and the things that you do and making the choice,' and I said, 'Yo, I will. I definitely will do that,'" he added. "But it's just such a beautiful thing, like, he's like a big bro since I was a kid, now I'm an adult, and still giving great advice, like he does in his lyrics as well."

As far as what Coolio's legacy will be, Mitchell said it's multi-faceted -- from his music and his iconic hair and style, to what he's done for Black culture and hip-hop.

"You have to mention Coolio if you're talking about hip-hop, if you're talking about music in general," Mitchell insisted. "Things that he did on the platforms as far as like movie soundtracks, the style, his hair -- an icon, just a fashion icon. I don't think anybody else did it as good as him after that. You just gotta give it up to Coolio for what he did to the culture, and what he did for hip-hop."

Mitchell added, "I just want people to know how good of a person he was, and his music, and just what you saw on television and in the music, he was that offline too. Just a great guy."

R.I.P. Coolio, August 1, 1963 – September 28, 2022

Outright Games will release the Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova video game, developed by Tessera Studio, on consoles and PC on October 14.

Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova is in fact just one of a raft of new Star Trek books for younger Trekkies Paramount and Pearlman have been working on.


On October 4, Smart Pop, an imprint of BenBella Books, is publishing two Star Trek board books, Star Trek: My First Book of Colors and Star Trek: My First Book of Space, under license from Paramount Consumer Products. For author Robb Pearlman, who came up with the idea for both books and wrote My First Book of Colors, this is just the beginning. He has four Star Trek books, with four publishers, coming out this year and another in January 2023 (the aforementioned Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova).

My First Book of Colors introduces the very young to the multilayered hues of the franchise, along with icons from across the different Star Trek series. “It’s not just green, it’s a mysterious green hand, an iridescent jellyfish, a pinkish purplish quantum singularity,” Pearlman told Publisher's Weekly.

He enlisted friend Erin Macdonald, an astrophysicist and science consultant for the Star Trek franchise, to write My First Book of Space. The book features illustrations of Star Trek ships set on NASA photography of space phenomena like a nebula or the sun. The ships and their position within the spatial photos tie back to specific episodes, a fun bonus for the fans. The combination of photos and illustrations also helps kids understand that “even though the Enterprise is real to us, it’s not really a working spaceship,” Pearlman said.

Together, the two books teach STEAM concepts to the youngest readers, with plenty of Easter eggs for adults.

Pearlman’s other Star Trek books in 2022 include The Star Trek Book of Friendship: You Have Been, and Always Shall Be, My Friend, written with Jordan Hoffman (Smart Pop, May). “I noticed that people who would never ordinarily meet will become lifelong friends because of Star Trek,” Pearlman said. “They start talking about episodes and it evolves into meaningful friendships.” The hardcover book celebrates friendships from all of the series and includes a forward from two of the actors in Star Trek: Voyager.

A picture book, Star Trek Discovery: Girl Who Made the Stars (Running Press Kids, Aug.), written by Brandon Schultz and adapted by Pearlman, is based on an episode of Star Trek: Short Treks, an anthology series that ran for two seasons starting in 2018, centered on the character Michael Burnham from Star Trek: Discovery. Star Trek: Trek the Halls (Little, Brown, Oct.) is a riff on the Christmas carol “Deck the Halls” for fans of all ages, starring characters from all the TV series as they sport their ugly Christmas sweaters.

As mentioned above, Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova marks Pearlman’s first foray into middle-grade fiction. “It’s very different from a board book,” he says. “I’m always interested in flexing my writers’ muscles, and I’m a huge fan of the show.

Pearlman describes himself as a pop culturalist. He has written more than 60 books for children and adults, including 10 Star Trek titles. His recent titles have been skewing toward true children’s books, albeit typically with plenty of content for the adult fans. But much of his work has been meant to appeal mostly to adults or to adults and kids equally, while housed in a children’s book format.

That is true of Pearlman’s first Star Trek book, Fun with Kirk and Spock (Cider Mill Press, 2014), a parody of Fun with Dick and Jane. “I was at a Comic Con and I realized there’s a huge overlap in the Venn diagram of the people who love children’s books and the people who love Star Trek and remember watching it with their families,” he said. “Fun with Kirk and Spock was really for adults, but it found a huge audience with people who were reading it with their kids.”

Other Star Trek titles by Pearlman over the years include the Where’s Waldo?-like Search for Spock: A Star Trek Book of Exploration (Cider Mill, 2017), Star Trek: Redshirt’s Little Book of Doom (Insight Editions, 2016); and Star Trek: Body by Starfleet: A Fitness Guide (Running Press, 2019).

Pearlman’s pop culture writing is not limited to Star Trek. His diverse list of titles ranges from The Office: A Day at Dunder Mifflin Elementary (Little, Brown, 2020), to Bob Ross and Peapod the Squirrel (Running Press Kids, 2019), to Rick & Morty: Book of Gadgets and Inventions (Running Press, 2019), to name just a few.

Pearlman has also had a parallel career in publishing, including a 14-year stay at Rizzoli, where he served as associate publisher for Universe books, calendars, and licensing. He has also had stints at Simon & Schuster, Disney Publishing Worldwide, and Smart Pop.

Paramount and Nickelodeon Announce Launch of 'SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change', A New Global Ocean Conservation and Sustainability Initiative

PARAMOUNT CONSUMER PRODUCTS AND NICKELODEON ANNOUNCE LAUNCH OF GLOBAL OCEAN CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVE SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS: OPERATION SEA CHANGE
     
Multi-Year Campaign to Launch with Multiple Non-Profit And Consumer Products Partners


Share it: @Nickelodeon @SpongeBob #SpongeBob

NEW YORK, Sept. 29, 2022 -- Paramount Consumer Products and Nickelodeon today announced the launch of SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change, a brand-new global ocean conservation and sustainability initiative. Through partnerships with several non-profit organizations, SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change aims to help remove and divert five million pounds of ocean plastic over the next four years by funding cleanup projects. At the same time, Paramount Consumer Products will work with current SpongeBob SquarePants consumer products partners to drive more sustainable practices and reduce single-use plastic in products, and curate partnerships with new brands to create innovative product lines. Additionally, the initiative will engage millions of SpongeBob fans around the world with on-the-ground events and educational resources that connect them with ways to become a part of the movement and take action in their own communities.   

"Since its debut almost 25-years ago, SpongeBob SquarePants has become globally beloved for its contagious optimism and irreverent humor, but at its core the series has always had an intrinsic connection to the sea leading us to launch SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change to help protect the home of the very creatures that inspired Bikini Bottom," said Veronica Hart, Executive Vice President, Global Franchise Planning, Paramount Consumer Products. "With this initiative not only are we funding change but reinventing how we do business by creating a connected global effort around sustainability, while also being afforded the opportunity to honor the legacy of the incomparable Stephen Hillenburg, Marine Biologist and SpongeBob SquarePants creator, who was so deeply committed to preserving our oceans and marine life."

At launch, the program will mobilize a network of global non-profit partners that further the goals of SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change. These efforts, which have been funded through grants from the SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund at Tides Foundation, aim to help protect the ocean from plastic pollution and biodiversity loss through on-the-ground clean-up events in cities around the world. Paramount Consumer Products will also work with licensing partners to launch SpongeBob branded products that feature zero or reduced single-use plastic and rally consumers to get active through education and information about conservation-focused organizations they can support.

Non-profit launch partners include:

  • Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore – The Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore, in collaboration with Maryland-based government, business and community partners, is dedicated to cleaning and beautifying Baltimore's waterways. The SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund will support the Waterfront Partnership's Healthy Harbor initiative to sponsor trash collection activities through 2023.
  • Coral Restoration Foundation – Headquartered in Key Largo, Florida, the Coral Restoration Foundation was founded in response to the wide-spread loss of the dominant coral species on Florida's Coral Reef. Since 2007 they have been working to turn the tide for this critical ecosystem, and the SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund will support their coral restoration efforts through 2023.
  • Plastic Oceans International – This non-profit organization's goal is to foster sustainable communities and to end plastic pollution worldwide. They operate with the belief that they can and must act locally to create change globally, which they do through their four pillars of education, activism, advocacy and science. The SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund will help fund plastic clean-up projects in Brazil, Philippines, Mexico, Cameroon and Germany.
  • Surfers Against Sewage – Surfers Against Sewage is a grassroots environmental charity that campaigns to protect the ocean and all it makes possible. It was created in 1990 by a group of Cornish surfers, fighting to clean up the sea that was making them sick. Now, this UK-based marine conservation charity campaigns on all that threatens the ocean – plastic pollution, the climate emergency, industrial exploitation and water quality – taking action on the ground that triggers change from the top. The SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund will support the organization's Million Mile Clean, the most ambitious clean campaign to date, mobilizing over 100,000 people to clean 1 million miles of blue, green and urban spaces in the UK annually.
  • WORK – This organization supports waste collectors who recycle plastic, helping them earn a dignified income, while diverting waste otherwise destined for oceans and landfills. The SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change Fund will help fund responsible collection efforts in Haiti. Additionally, Paramount will collaborate with WORK to channel first mile ocean-bound plastic material into the licensed consumer products supply chain, contributing to a more circular economy while cleaning up the environment.

Below are Consumer Products partners launching in 2022 and early 2023:

  • AKUA – This New England-based company is on a mission to create a platform of delicious and nutritious products from a new and exciting form of food agriculture: regenerative ocean farming. AKUA and SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change will be teaming up in 2023 to launch a branded kelp patty that will feature reduced plastic packaging.
  • Conscious Step – This Brooklyn, New York-based company designs and sells sustainably made socks, sweatshirts and candles that benefit leading non-profits around the world. Each item is uniquely designed and embroidered to raise awareness for the associated cause, with a portion of the proceeds being donated to provide a quantified change. This fall, a line of SpongeBob SquarePants branded apparel will launch, with a portion of proceeds to be donated to Oceana, a non-profit ocean conservation organization.
  • Munro Footwear Shoes – This Australia-based company designs and sells shoes for boys and girls. Launching in early 2023, Munro Shoes will roll out a SpongeBob SquarePants branded collection that uses reclaimed leather and features recycled packaging that uses no plastic. These will be launching Australia-wide in all Williams and Mathers stores.
  • Seaesta Surf – This sustainable beachwear brand for kids launched the Seaesta X SpongeBob collaboration earlier this summer and will be expanding the partnership and joining the SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change movement in 2023. Details will be announced at a later date.
  • Waterlust – A purpose-driven apparel company that uses clothing to educate, inspire and support consumers in living a more environmentally responsible life. They will be launching a line of products featuring recycled fabrics made from post-consumer bottles. The collection will also have a donation to the Ocean Institute in California to support their K-12 marine science education program.

Additionally, the Nickelodeon brand will use the full power of its multimedia ecosystem to galvanize the SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Sea Change movement across its social, digital and linear channels. Fans can also log onto www.SpongeBobOperationSeaChange.com for more information about the initiative and its partners.


In 2023, the initiative will expand to include: new partnerships and products, additional short-form content that will help educate fans on the ocean plastic crisis and on-the-ground clean-ups and activations that will allow fans to get involved. Further details will be announced at a later date.


Since its launch July 17, 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has reigned as the most-watched animated series for 22 consecutive years, while generating a universe of beloved characters, pop culture catchphrases and memes, theatrical releases, consumer products, a Tony award-winning Broadway musical and a global fan base. SpongeBob SquarePants is one of the most widely distributed properties in Paramount International history, seen in more than 170 countries, translated in 29+ languages, and averaging more than 100 million total viewers every quarter. SpongeBob SquarePants was created by Stephen Hillenburg and produced by Nickelodeon in Burbank, Calif.  The character-driven cartoon chronicles the nautical and sometimes nonsensical adventures of SpongeBob, an incurable optimist and earnest sea sponge, and his undersea friends.
