Nickelodeon Sister Network Paramount Players Making SLIME Movie

Have you ever wondered why there hasn’t been a movie based on Slime? No? Me neither. But here we are, expecting a movie based on Slime. We complain that there aren’t enough original ideas in Hollywood, and then when they give us something original, we complain some more. Let’s clean up our act and give Slime a chance. Or something like that.

The movie will get its script from writing partners Steve Pink and Jeff Morris, with Pink directing. The Deadline exclusive says the movie will be a “family action adventure film,” “about a slime experiment gone wrong.” So we don’t have a lot to go on for now, but judging by the writers, there actually is a glimmer of hope that they could pull off a fun movie with a solid story. Pink has been at the helm of two of my favorite shows, Santa Clarita Diet and Cobra Kai, as well as directing the Hot Tub Time Machine films and About Last Night. Morris has written the script for The True Memoirs of an International Assassin, and the pair currently have other projects in development that include Failure to Appear and The Yank at Sony, as well as Cop Swap at MGM.

So we will see as time goes on what this movie is shaping up to look like. What do you think? I know at least my kids will be excited!
