Today SkyShowtime released the enchanting trailer and announced the local voice casts for its new family adventure series Hidden Islands. Following a growing catalogue of well-received original series and documentaries, Hidden Islands marks SkyShowtime’s first foray into animation and entertainment for the whole family to enjoy, with the series premiering exclusively on the platform in Northern Europe from 5 December.

Consisting of 20 seven-minute episodes brought to life by an award-winning team with extensive experience in children’s animation, the series will have local voice casts for Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.*

Hidden Islands tells the story of three children who end up on a mythical group of islands and soon realise that this is no ordinary place: the islands are slightly out of sync with the rest of the world, and they hold a big secret - a secret that will change their lives and which could save the world! The three children must use all their wit and work together as a team with nature to find hidden clues that can help them unravel the mystery and get back home.

The series is created by duo Madeleine Bernadotte and Karini Gustafson-Teixeira, who previously co-wrote children’s book Stella and the Secret. Through Hidden Islands, the pair hope to encourage children to explore nature and connect with the outside world in an organic and meaningful way.

The animated series is produced by OYA Copenhagen, the creative studio producer behind Mia’s Magical Playground, with executive producers Camilla Hammer and Sarita Christensen. The series is directed by Peter Egeberg and written by Myles McLeod, Evgenia Golubeva, and Pelle Møller. Design by art director Julie Hauge and designer Bea Estevez. Sound design by Morten Dalsgaard. The score was composed by August Fenger, also known as ELOQ.

Hidden Islands is produced with support from The Public Service Fund in Denmark. Development financing was provided by Midnight Sun in Sweden, with production financing from OYA Copenhagen in Denmark.

Hidden Islands joins the growing library of family favourites available to stream on SkyShowtime including How to Train Your Dragon (2025), The Bad Guys 2, The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants, Paw Patrol S1-13 and Wicked: For Good.

Chris Pratt will receive the iconic King of Comedy Award during CBS PRESENTS NICKELODEON KIDS’ CHOICE AWARDS (“KCAs”), broadcasting live from Television City in Los Angeles on Saturday, Nov. 14 (8:00-9:30 PM, ET/5:00-6:30 PM, PT). Recognized for his standout comedic performances across film and television, as well as his beloved turns in some of the biggest animated franchises, Pratt will receive the coveted Silver Blimp in celebration of his career, before facing Nickelodeon’s iconic slime. Pratt is also nominated for Favorite Male Animated Voice from a Movie for his role as Mario in “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie,” and stars in the brand-new “Way of the Warrior Kid,” debuting globally on Apple TV on Wednesday, Nov. 25.

Said Pratt: “I’m incredibly honored to receive Nickelodeon’s King of Comedy Award. I spent most of my childhood trying to make people laugh to get out of trouble. Now apparently you can win awards for it. Pretty sweet deal. Comedy has always been a huge part of my life, and making people laugh is one of my favorite things in the world. Especially kids. I’m grateful to Nickelodeon and CBS for this honor. And if I get slimed, just know I’ll be sending them my dry-cleaning bill.”

Hosted by multiplatinum GRAMMY® Award-nominated recording artist Alex Warren, the “KCAs” will celebrate fan-favorite projects across film, television, music, gaming, sports and more. For the first time, the show will air live on the CBS Television Network and Nickelodeon, and stream live on Paramount+ for Premium subscribers in the U.S., with on-demand viewing available the following day for Premium and Essential subscribers. The show will also be available globally on Paramount+ following its linear premiere on Nickelodeon and CBS.

Musical performances and celebrity appearances will be announced at a later date.

Chris Pratt has firmly established himself as a global Hollywood powerhouse, with his films collectively earning more than $15 billion at the worldwide box office. Up next, Pratt produced and stars in “Way of the Warrior Kid” for Apple TV – an adaptation of Jocko Willink’s bestselling children’s novel – launching Nov. 25. He just brought Mario to life in the blockbuster hit “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie” in April 2026, which has grossed over $1 billion at the global box office. Pratt made a highly anticipated return to television in “The Terminal List,” which premiered in July 2022. Based on the Jack Carr novel and produced through his production company, Indivisible Productions, the series debuted at #1 on Prime Video and was renewed for a second season, “True Believer,” which debuted to #1 on Prime Video on Oct. 21. A prequel series, “Dark Wolf,” led by Taylor Kitsch, premiered Aug. 27, 2025.

The 18th Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk Raises $3.3 Million for Kids

THE 18TH SKECHERS PIER TO PIER FRIENDSHIP WALK RAISES $3.3 MILLION FOR KIDS

THE 18TH SKECHERS PIER TO PIER FRIENDSHIP WALK RAISES .3 MILLION FOR KIDS | David Weinberg, Brooke Burke, Sugar Ray Leonard, actor Nate Simon, and Robin Curren celebrate the 2026 Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk.

LOS ANGELES, CA – October 23, 2025 – In its 18th year, the Skechers Foundation, Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk and presenting sponsor Nickelodeon raised a record-breaking $3.3 million for children with special needs and education. Supported by boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard, celebrity TV host Brooke Burke, actor Nate Simon and baseball icons Chris Taylor, Kyle Karros and Jared Karros, thousands gathered on Sunday for the heartwarming annual tradition of the pier-to-pier walk in Southern California’s South Bay.

“Our best-ever Sunday wasn’t just an incredible success—it’s the latest in a beautiful story that’s always been all about our kids,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers and co-founder of the Walk, which has raised $35 million to date for children with special needs, public schools, and national college scholarships. “When you look at the numbers—our annual 3.4-mile journey, 18 years running, the tens of thousands who take part in this every year—we have collectively walked more than a million miles, or 40 times around the planet for our youth. As incredible as that is, the impact of seeing our next generation realize the best version of themselves through our support is even more moving. From the tens of thousands of students who have benefited from improved schools and national college scholarships, to the children with special needs and young adults who will soon gather at our world-class Friendship Campus, every step we take shows them that the sky’s the limit.”

“A huge shout-out to our Presenting Sponsor Nickelodeon, all of our generous celebrity supporters who have come together for this important cause, and the many dedicated companies, volunteers and more than 24,000  registrants who are putting our kids first and making every day of their lives better.”

The annual Walk benefits the Friendship Campus (The Greenberg Family/Skechers Center)—a $70 million, nearly 62,000-square-foot destination that offers neurodivergent young adults a safe, supportive place that can help them build their independence and find their purpose. Funded by the Skechers Foundation, Friendship Foundation and generous partners, the campus opens its doors on January 21, 2027, with a creative arts studio, culinary institute and recreation center, as well as life skills programming, early education and mentoring that will foster their personal growth while preparing them for meaningful professional opportunities.

The Campus also will serve as the new headquarters for the Friendship Foundation, expanding its reach, programming and impact. Originally serving 30 participants at one school through its original buddy program, the Friendship Foundation now engages with more than 5,000 students, participants and volunteers across Los Angeles County—partnering with nearly 100 schools, facilitating over 50 monthly programs and providing a six-week summer camp for children with special needs.

The Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk also has had a remarkable impact on education. Through public school education foundations, the event has contributed millions to reduce class sizes; update labs, libraries and facilities; and protect teachers’ jobs. A portion of its proceeds regularly support the Skechers Foundation’s national college scholarship program, which has donated more than $3.5 million in scholarships to students with financial need and proven excellence in academics, athletics and leadership.

The Walk featured an array of performers and characters interacting with the crowd—from musical band Full Circle Boys and the Clippers Spirit dance team to Care Bears and beloved Nickelodeon characters SpongeBob + Sandy, Paw Patrol Pups Marshall + Everest, and Tommy + Angelica from Rugrats. Shelter animals were also adopted on site through pet adoptions in partnership with Best Friends Animal Society.

The Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk thanks Presenting Sponsor Nickelodeon and the generous companies and partners committed to changing our children’s lives—including Rare Beauty, Ted Schwartz Family Foundation, Steel Sports, Mattel, United Legwear & Apparel Co., StandStrong, Big 5 Sporting Goods, TJX Companies, Chevron, Bank of America, Fossil Group, Ross Stores, Barco, Dakine, Vertra, Legends, Honda, Burlington Stores, Amazon, KPMG, Kinecta, Moose Toys, Waiakea, L.A.

Chargers, Providence Little Company of Mary, Angels Baseball, Continental Development, Serta, F&M Bank, Herbalife, WSS, Topgolf, Beach Cities Health District, Olipop, Cushman & Wakefield, BMO, and many more.
