Keke Palmer Celebrates True Jackson's Influence On An Entire Generation

'This is a young person living their dream,' she tells MTV News


Earlier this month, when Keke Palmer announced she'd be hosting the 2020 VMAs, she recruited her beloved Nickelodeon character True Jackson for the occasion, recording a video call between the two where they celebrate Palmer's new gig and make plans to glam her up appropriately for the occasion. It was a nice resurrection for True, even in an era marked by reboots, where no character stays retired for too long.

But Palmer tells MTV News the moment had added significance for a generation of fans who grew up viewing young mogul True as a role model. "As I've gotten older, I didn't realize how much of an influence that character had on young Black women, young millennials, young kids, just everybody, because it's like, yo, this is a young person living their dream," she said.

Nickelodeon Japan to Premiere 'Are You Afraid of the Dark?' on Saturday 12th September 2020

NICKELODEON GETS SET
FOR RETURN OF ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK?

New Three-Part Limited Series Event Premieres This September on Nickelodeon Japan

Share it: #AreYouAfraidoftheDark


Nickelodeon is preparing for the return of The Midnight Society with the all-new Are You Afraid of the Dark? three-part limited series event. Based on the ‘90s kids’ cult classic, and reimagined for a new generation, part one of Are You Afraid of the Dark? will premiere on Nickelodeon Japan (日本) on Saturday 12th September 2020 at 11:40, with Parts 2 and 3 airing soon after! The series is locally titled アー・ユー・アフレイド・オブ・ザ・ダーク? in Japan.

Nickelodeon 日本 is available as a Amazon Prime Video Channel, as well as through dTV-Channel, Hulu and music.jp.

Across the three hour-long episodes, Are You Afraid of the Dark? will follow members of an entirely new Midnight Society, who tell a terrifying tale of the Carnival of Doom and its evil ringmaster Mr. Tophat, only to witness the shocking story come frightfully to life. In the just-released trailer, viewers meet the new members of the Midnight Society, get a glimpse at the uncertainty that awaits and prepare for an adventure beyond their wildest nightmares.

In Part One, "Submitted For Approval", tormented by nightmares, the new girl in school feels and out of place until a mysterious group invites her to join. All she has to do is tell a truly terrifying story.

In Part Two, "Opening Night", when a friend's disappearance seems to be linked to Rachel's story, the Midnight Society decides to attend the Carnival of Doom. Is it the same carnival from her nightmares? How?

In Part Three, "Destroy All Tophats", with her friends' lives at stake, Rachel decides to take charge and end Mr. Tophat's reign of terror. Will the story have a happy ending, or is the Midnight Society doomed?

The new members of the Midnight Society are: Rachel, played by Lyliana Wray (Top Gun: Maverick); Gavin, played by Sam Ashe Arnold (Best.Worst.Weekend.Ever.); Akiko, played by Miya Cech (Rim of the World, Always Be My Maybe); Graham, played by Jeremy Taylor (IT: Chapter Two, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween); and Louise, played by Tamara Smart (Artemis Fowl, The Worst Witch). The Carnival of Doom’s ringmaster, Mr. Tophat, is played by Rafael Casal (Blindspotting).

Are You Afraid of the Dark? is produced by ACE Entertainment (To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, The Perfect Date) with ACE founder Matt Kaplan and Spencer Berman serving as executive producers. The series is written by BenDavid Grabinski (Skiptrace, Happily) and directed by Dean Israelite (Power Rangers movie, Project Almanac), both of whom are also executive producers. Chris Foss is also an executive producer.

One of the Nickelodeon’s most iconic series from the ‘90s, the original Are You Afraid of the Dark? delivered riveting stories of horror to young audiences, all from a kid’s perspective. Are You Afraid of the Dark? is owned by DHX and was created by D.J. MacHale and Ned Kandel, who are also executive producers on the project.

Are You Afraid of the Dark? made its world premiere on Nickelodeon in the U.S. on Friday, Oct. 11, at 7:00 p.m. (ET/PT), as part of the network's Halloween programming highlights. A second season has been commissioned.

Nickelodeon HD+ in India to Premiere 'LEGO City Adventures' on Monday 31st August 2020

NICKELODEON HD+ INDIA TO DEBUT BRAND-NEW ANIMATED SERIES LEGO® CITY ADVENTURES

Share it: @NickIndia #Nickelodeon


Nickelodeon HD+ in India and the LEGO Group will premiere the brand-new high-stakes CG-animated comedy series LEGO® City Adventures on Monday 31st August 2020 at 11:00am. Following the construction of the series premiere, newly constructed episodes will continue to premiere regularly on Nick HD+.

A rollercoaster ride of fantastic fun, the series (20 episodes) depicts the funny, smart, and dynamic slices of life within the sprawling and diverse LEGO City community, following the absurd and action-packed adventures of its residents.

“LEGO CITY is our strongest evergreen property globally, and for the first time we are leveraging episodic content to establish characters and personalities that bring the city to life,” said Jill Wilfert, Vice President, Licensing & Entertainment for LEGO Group. “We’re thrilled to partner with Nickelodeon for this important evolution of LEGO CITY given how well positioned they are to engage children and families with relevant programming.”


“The LEGO brand is known for creating imaginative and innovative content for kids, and we are excited to collaborate with the LEGO Group to bring the unique characters, style and humor of LEGO City Adventures to life on Nickelodeon,” said Layla Lewis, SVP of Global Acquisitions and Content Partnerships, Nickelodeon.

LEGO City Adventures explores the intertwining paths of the city's everyday heroes as they work together to stop a mysterious master criminal who begins to wreak havoc on their town. In the premiere episode “Cubs and Robbers”, a movie promotion stunt goes wrong, unleashing a humongous ‘Cubby the Cop’ balloon on the city. Then, in “Billy the Bug”, Fire Chief McCloud accidentally buys a malfunctioning Twirly Hat for her nephew.

Citizens of LEGO City introduced throughout the series include: Sergeant Duke DeTain (Joe Zieja, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4), an overly heroic cop; Freya McCloud (Misty Lee, DC Super Hero Girls), a crisis-ready fire chief; Shirley Keeper (Alex Cazares, The Loud House), the grumpy street sweeper; Harl Hubbs (Daniel MK Cohen, Fixed), an overeager handyman; Tippy Dorman (James Arnold Taylor, Star Wars: The Clone Wars), an expert doorman with a secret; Solomon Fleck (Roger Craig Smith, Avengers Assemble), the dedicated city mayor; Percival “Wheelie” Wheeler (Mick Lauer, Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal), a skateboarding police chief and more.

Created and produced by LEGO Group, LEGO City Adventures is also produced by Flaunt Animation (Scotland) and Passion Pictures (France) and written by Jon Colton Barry (Phineas and Ferb), Steven Banks (SpongeBob SquarePants), Jamie Moyer (Modern Family) and Brian Hunt (Second City Chicago). Jason Oliveri is the executive in charge of LEGO City Adventures for Nickelodeon.

Nickelodeon USA to Premiere New 'LEGO Jurassic World' Special 'Double Trouble' in August 2020

Get set to return to Jurassic World in the brand new multi-part LEGO® Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar special, "Double Trouble", premiering this August on Nickelodeon USA!


In the special, Cedric Masrani will join his brother Simon in running Jurassic World, with the pair’s fractious relationship reflected by the two Indominus Rex babies that Dr Wu hatches. It will be up the two brothers along with Owen and Claire to track down the escaped baby dinosaurs and, as usual, avert disaster on the Jurassic World island. From what the trailer shows, it seems there will be plenty of other dino mayhem to complicate things.

"Two dinosaurs are better than one...unless they prey on humans! Can the Jurassic World team get these twin dinosaurs under control?" reads the special's official synopsis.

The first part of the all new LEGO® Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar special, "Double Trouble - Part 1" (#997) will premiere on Nick on Sunday, August 23, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. (ET/PT), with "Double Trouble - Part 2" (#996) airing the following week, Sunday, August 30 at 9:00 a.m. (ET/PT).

The special is also set to stream on Peacock Kids.

Double Trouble: Part 1: Losing Control: The new artificial intelligence running the park goes dangerously off the rails; a thief posing as an intern steals two eggs that contain a new species of dinosaur.

Double Trouble: Part 2: Owen scrambles to shut down O.O.P.S.I. before it can do real damage; Claire and the others hunt the escaped twin dinosaurs.


The short looks to be another fun, non-canonical adventure set in the LEGO Jurassic World universe – and, by the looks of it, it may follow the events of Legends of Isla Nublar. Whilst the show itself doesn’t appear to be too different from the other LEGO adventures we have already received, it does appear to introduce some of the LEGO Jurassic World sets we received this year into the animated world – something which is exciting in it’s own right as it is always great for fans to get to see products they have in collections on the big screen.

In the trailer we can see the new version of Owen Grady in his tan attire which came in the sets, as well as the brand new capture vehicle from the Gallimimus and Pteranodon set which released this year. This does call into question whether we could see more of the new sets – such as the Laboratory set, or even the Gyrosphere Valley section, in the animated show too. Plus a LEGO Baby Ankylosaurus on screen could rival Bumpy-levels of cuteness in its own regard!


The news comes as the CG-animated LEGO® Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar series starts to roll out onto Nickelodeon channels globally, including Turkey and Asia.
