Paramount Animation and Nickelodeon Animation are teaming up to produce multiple movies based on the popular “The Smurfs” franchise.
The first will be an animated musical film with “South Park” and “Team America” scribe Pam Brady writing. That film still hasn’t set a director, but is already locked in for a December 20th 2024 release.
Also on order is a second season of 26 episodes of the original CG-animated TV series “The Smurfs” which launched its first season in September last year.
“The Smurfs” property is based on characters and stories created by Belgian artist Pierre Culliford, known as Peyo. LAFIG Belgium and IMPS will produce the various films.
