Monster High Gets the Hollywood Treatment

"Monster High's strong message of inclusivity is more relevant than ever," says 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."

The new series follows characters Clawdeen Wolf, Draculaura and Frankie Stein as they navigate Monster High's halls. The show, which will be available globally across Nickelodeon platforms, is scheduled to premiere in 2022. Similarly, the musical movie event, which marks the first time Monster High will be brought to life in live-action, will be available on Nickelodeon platforms globally next year.

The "Monster High" series and movie musical event join other Mattel Television content in production, including series and specials based on Barbie, Masters of the Universe, Thomas & Friends, Polly Pocket and Fireman Sam, among others.

"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," says 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."
