PARAMOUNT+ ANNOUNCES NEW AS1ONE: THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN POP MUSIC JOURNEY
The Four-part Docuseries will Premiere December 3
Featured Original Music from the Group includes New Single “Stranger” due
this Friday, November 15
Nov. 13, 2024 – Paramount+ today announced AS1ONE: THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN POP MUSIC JOURNEY will premiere Tuesday, December 3 on the service. The As1One Production Company docuseries in association with Best Production Company for MTV Entertainment Studios is a coming-of-age series based on the lives of six young men - the world’s first mixed Israeli-Palestinian pop group - that came together to form the next global hit pop group, as1one.
Throughout this compelling four-part docuseries, music being the ultimate connector is explored in the chronicled journey to create the world’s first Israeli-Palestinian pop group. Over a five year period, the band members share their ups and downs including the challenging audition process in 2020; their language barriers, intense rehearsals, emotional highs and lows as they found their footing; navigating the very unexpected world events that happened on October 7th, 2023 – the morning after they flew to LA to record their first album; and the monumental challenges they have faced each day since. With so much more at stake because of the war, the band finds greater purpose in their music now representing something much greater than the six of them.
The docuseries will also feature original music from the group including their debut single, “All Eyes On Us,” featuring Nile Rodgers as well as their upcoming single, “Stranger,” due this Friday, Nov. 15, and more.
Envisioned by music entrepreneurs James Diener and Ken Levitan, AS1ONE: THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN POP MUSIC JOURNEY spotlights the work of platinum-selling artists and producers, stylists, choreographers and industry leaders, all collaborating to create a group that embodies unity, with members agreeing to disagree on the war in their homeland as they focus on making music together. Amidst raw interactions and real-world challenges, their journey unfolds with a distinctive edge - just like the unique composition of their band. Each step captures the authenticity that sets them apart, making their story as compelling as their sound.
AS1ONE: THE ISRAELI-PALESTINIAN POP MUSIC JOURNEY is produced by Ken Levitan, James Diener, Ami Nir and Kevin Bartel alongside Bruce Gillmer for MTV Entertainment Studios.

In regions outside the U.S., where the series has not aired yet, The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish will be a Netflix Original. In the U.S., where the show has already aired on Nickelodeon, the series will continue to carry Nickelodeon branding.
The news was first reported by our friends over at What's on Netflix.
In The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish, ten-year-old Hazel Wells has just moved to the big city of Dimmadelphia because of her dad’s new job. On top of being in an unfamiliar environment, it’s the first time she’s been without her brother, Antony, who’s just left for college, leaving her lonely and unsure of herself. All that changes when the pink-and-green-haired neighbors next door reveal that they are no ordinary neighbors…they’re Cosmo and Wanda, Fairy Godparents! And they’re coming out of retirement to make all of Hazel’s wishes come true. As well as new characters, the series brings back many from the original series, including Vicky, Mr. Crocker, CJ, and Poof, who now goes by the name of Peri. The series also features many Easter eggs calling back to the original show.
The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish stars Ashleigh Crystal Hairston (Tiny Toons Looniversity, Craig of the Creek) as the voice of Hazel Wells, joining The Fairly OddParents alums Daran Norris (The Loud House, The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder) as the voice of Cosmo, and Susanne Blakeslee (The Loud House, Amphibia) as the voice of Wanda.
The CG-animated series, which features a brand new art style for the franchise, is produced by Nickelodeon Animation in Burbank and is co-executive produced by David Stone (Teen Titans Go!), Lindsay Katai (Infinity Train), Ashleigh Crystal Hairston, and Daniel Abramovici (The Peanuts Movie). Fred Seibert (Adventure Time) and Butch Hartman (The Fairly OddParents, Danny Phantom) serve as Executive Producers.

The series is overseen by Executive in Charge, Neil Wade.
Produced by Nickelodeon Animation, the series premiered on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Monday, May 20, with the season one finale airing on August 8.
Nickelodeon
There’s currently no word on whether the show is set to get a second season. The show was given an upfront order of 20 episodes (36 segments), with all of those making up season 1 of the show now aired. It’s likely going to be the case that Netflix viewership plus Nickelodeon viewership goes into making a renewal decision.
The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish, a soundtrack featuring music from the series from Republic Records: Kids & Family, is available to stream on music platforms, including Spotify and Apple Music, and available to purchase on iTunes.
Nickelodeon’s beloved animated The Fairly OddParents series, which ran from 2001-2017 with 172 episodes, followed the magical adventures of 10-year-old Timmy Turner and his well-meaning Fairy Godparents who grant him wishes. During its run, The Fairly OddParents became one of Nickelodeon’s most beloved properties from both fans and critics alike, having won and been nominated for dozens of awards. The Fairly OddParents was created by Butch Hartman.

Season one of Netflix’s live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender series was a great success. And fans are very excited to know that season two of the series is well underway. Although it might be some time before we see a new trailer or imagery from the series, Netflix has revealed some other fun information.
Pictured, left to right: Amanda Zhou, Chin Han, Hoa Xuande, Kelemete Misipeka
We now officially have some new live-action casting information for important characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender season two. First up, our new friends from the Earth Kingdom. Book Two of Avatar: The Last Airbender is “Earth,” after all. But maybe we’ll see new season two cast information from other Avatar: The Last Airbender kingdoms and nations soon as well. For now, we’ll get inspired by what’s been revealed so far.
You can take a look below to see who has joined in the fun.
Netflix
Here is the full list of new characters joining the adventure in the second season of live-action Avatar.
Chin Han (Mortal Kombat, Skyscraper) plays “Long Feng”
Hoa Xuande (The Sympathizer, Top of the Lake: China Girl) as “Professor Zei”
Justin Chien (The Brothers Sun, The Great Leap) as “King Kuei”
Amanda Zhou (Spinning Out, The Handmaid’s Tale) plays “Joo Dee”
Crystal Yu (Doctor Who, Good Omens) plays “Lady Beifong”
Kelemete Misipeka (Sons of Thunder, Ray Donovan), plays “The Boulder”
Lourdes Faberes (The Sandman, Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre) as “General Sung”
Rekha Sharma (Yellowjackets, Battlestar Galactica) as “Amita”
Of particular interest are, of course, Long Feng, a devious villain who heads up Ba Sing Se’s secret police, the Dai Li, in the beloved animated Nickelodeon series. Long Feng has fickle loyalties and a lot of self-interest. We bet he’ll be causing trouble for the Gaang sooner rather than later.
Professor Zei, meanwhile, is the head of the anthropology department at Ba Sing Se University in the original series who was obsessed with finding Wan Shi Tong’s Library. Wan Shi Tong already made one appearance in Avatar: The Last Airbender season one, speaking to Aang in the Spirit World. So perhaps we shall see him again.
Nickelodeon/Netflix
Finally, Joo Dee is a public servant and guide for important visitors in Ba Sing Se, as well as the face of Ba Sing Se’s dangerous denial of war, waylaying the Avatar and his friends from their mission in the most genial way possible. We’re sure we’ll see Amanda Zhou’s grinning face making its way into the meme-verse before long.
Others cast include Toph’s mother, Lady Beifong; The Boulder, who is a professional earthbending wrestler Toph handily defeats in the ring; General Sung, a high-ranking Earth Army commander; and King Kuei, the Earth King. Especially interesting is the season two casting of a brand new character Avatar: The Last Airbender‘s world, both live-action and cartoon, Amita. Netflix's Avatar did introduce several new characters in season one. But we’ll have to wait and see exactly who Amita is.
It should be noted that the live-action version has already made several changes to individual characters as well as storylines, so these versions of the characters mentioned above may not correspond exactly to their counterparts in the original show.
Avatar: The Last Airbender recently revealed the casting of one of its most important season two characters, Toph, who will be portrayed by Miya Cech. And so, it really feels like momentum is building for the next chapters of the series. We’re excited to meet all these new faces and to soon learn more about where the show will go.
The new additions join returning cast members Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu, Elizabeth Yu, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Daniel Dae Kim, Momona Tamada and Thalia Tran.
In addition to season two, Netflix also renewed Avatar: The Last Airbender for a third season, which will round out the series, mirroring the Nickelodeon original.
Avatar: The Last Airbender is currently in production at Netflix in partnership with Nickelodeon. Netflix has already renewed the show through Season 3, concluding with the “Book of Fire” just like the animated version.
Jabbar Raisani and Christine Boylan are executive producers and showrunners on the series. Albert Kim, who developed the live-action version, also executive produces along with Dan Lin, Ryan Halprin, and Brendan Ferguson.
