Trailer For Nickelodeon's Live-Action MONSTER HIGH: THE MOVIE
Nickelodeon has shared the first trailer for its upcoming live-action film project Monster High: The Movie, which is based on the popular Mattel toy line. I’m very familiar with this toy line as my three daughters loved collecting these dolls at one point. The movie pretty much looks like what you’d expect from a Monster High movie.
Monster High: The Movie follows “Clawdeen Wolf (Miia Harris, Just Beyond), who was born half human and half werewolf, after she arrives at her new school, Monster High. She quickly makes friends with her classmates Frankie Stein (Ceci Balagot, Dispatches from Elsewhere) and Draculaura (Nayah Damasen, Grey's Anatomy), and for the first time in her life, Clawdeen feels like she has finally found a place where she fits in and can truly be herself, despite keeping her human half a secret. When a devious plan to destroy Monster High threatens to reveal her real identity, Clawdeen must learn to embrace her true monster heart and find a way to save the day.”
The movie also stars Case Walker (The Other Two) as Deuce Gorgon; Kyle Selig (Mean Girls on Broadway) as Mr. Komos; Marci T. House (Day of the Dead) as Headmistress Bloodgood; Scotch Ellis Loring (Firehouse Dog) as Clawdeen's dad, Apollo; Steve Valentine (Mom) as Draculaura's dad, Dracula; Jy Prishkulnik (Just Beyond) as Cleo de Nile; Lina Lecompte (Death Pursuit) as Lagoona Blue; Justin Derickson (When the Streetlights Go On) as Heath Burns; Lilah Fitzgerald (Honey Girls) as Ghoulia; and Nasiv Sall (Descendants 2) as Abbey Bominable. It’s explained that “additional fan-favorite characters from the Monster High universe will also be seen throughout the movie.”
There’s also a Monster High animated series in development. Monster High: The Movie is set to premiere on Nickelodeon and Paramount+ on October 6th, 2022.
