NICKELODEON STUDIOS GREENLIGHTS "MY WEIRD SCHOOL," ALL-NEW FEATURE-LENGTH MOVIE BASED ON THE BEST-SELLING BOOK SERIES

HOLLYWOOD, Calif.- Oct. 24, 2024- Nickelodeon Studios today announced the greenlight of My Weird School, an all-new feature-length movie based on the book series by New York Times best-selling author Dan Gutman. The movie will follow middle school student A.J. as he finds himself joining forces with faculty and friends to save the world from an alien invasion. Production on My Weird School begins in Vancouver, Canada this month, and will stream day-and-date on Paramount+ and air on Nickelodeon channels around the world. Premiere details will be announced at a later date.

Said Shauna Phelan, EVP, Live Action Series and Film, Nickelodeon & Awesomeness: "We are so excited to bring this beloved book series to life with a dream cast of actors and influencers we know our audience will love, and a creative team lead by Jonathan Judge who will elevate the movie in a hilarious way for Nickelodeon's kids and family audience."

In the movie, A.J. hates middle school but is willing to give it a chance to prove him wrong. Upon arriving for the first day, he is convinced this year will be just like any other, until he meets his really weird teachers and soon finds himself saving the world from an alien invasion.

My Weird School stars Hero Hunter as "A.J.," Harper Zilmer as "Lex," Aaron Harris as "Ryan," Nakai Takawira as "Andrea," Sean "SeanDoesMagic" Sotaridona as "Todd," Liv Pearsall as "Mrs. LaGrange" and Adam Rose as "Mr. Small."

With more than 100 titles and 35 million copies sold, Dan Gutman's My Weird School book series, published by HarperCollins, follows the day-to-day life of wisecracking A.J., his loyal pals Ryan and Michael, and his archenemy, smarty-pants Andrea, as they face a set of wacky teachers at Ella Mentry School - the weirdest school ever.

My Weird School is directed by Jonathan Judge (The Really Loud House). Production of the movie is overseen by Shauna Phelan, EVP, Live Action Series and Film, Nickelodeon & Awesomeness, along with Executives Brin Lukens and Brittany Cope.
