Get ready to see your favorite monsters in an all-new adventure! Mattel and Nickelodeon have announced they’re producing a live-action television movie musical AND a new animated series for the iconic franchise, Monster High!
You’ll catch your favorite characters Clawdeen Wolf, Draculaura, and Frankie Stein going through the hallowed halls of Monster High as they deal with the craziness of high school in the new animated series.
The TV musical live-action movie event will be the first time these beloved characters will be brought to life! These classic monsters will be introduced in a new way and will capture the hearts of their fans and new audiences.
“Monster High’s strong message of inclusivity is more relevant than ever,” said Fred Soulie, General Manager, Mattel Television. “Nickelodeon shares our passion for the brand and its purpose having worked on the franchise when it first launched more than a decade ago. They are the ideal partners to bring these beloved characters and their stories to life through episodic television and the live-action television movie.”
“These classic monsters have always captured kids’ imaginations and we are so excited and proud to welcome Monster High to our brand for a new generation of kids,” said Ramsey Naito, President of Nickelodeon Animation. “We have terrific partners on board at Mattel to create original content in different formats, and, with the expertise of the Nick creative team helmed by Claudia Spinelli on the animation development side, and Zack Olin and Shauna Phelan on the live-action side, we can’t wait to showcase the comedy and adventure of these characters as they defy expectations and take on the world.”
“We could not be more excited to work with Ramsey, Claudia, Zack, Shauna, our writers and the entire Nickelodeon animation and live-action teams to introduce Monster High to a new audience,” added Adam Bonnet, Executive Producer, Mattel Television. “This property has always resonated deeply with fans and our reimagination of the franchise will focus on addressing important themes of identity and empowerment for kids today.”
Monster High was first introduced in 2010 with a global fanbase embracing its message of inclusivity. Both projects are slotted to release in 2022, and we cannot wait!
