Big Nate: Paramount Plus to Premiere New Animated Series on Feb. 17, Unveils Show's First Trailer

PARAMOUNT+ REVEALS OFFICIAL TRAILER FOR ORIGINAL ANIMATED SERIES “BIG NATE,” PREMIERING THURSDAY, FEB. 17

Jack Black Guest Stars in the Series Premiere

Based on the Best-Selling Children’s Books, the All-New Animated Series

Is Produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio

Watch Exclusive Look of “Big Nate” During Nickelodeon and CBS Sports’

“NFL Wild Card Game” Halftime Presentation Sunday, Jan. 16


Jan. 11, 2021 – Paramount+, the streaming service from ViacomCBS, today released the official trailer and key art for its upcoming animated original series BIG NATE, based on the best-selling children’s books and comic strip written and drawn by acclaimed author and cartoonist Lincoln Peirce. The series will stream beginning Thursday, Feb. 17, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and later in the month in Australia. The first eight episodes will be available in the U.S. and Canada, with more episodes to be announced at a later date. Produced by Nickelodeon Animation Studio, BIG NATE follows a precocious 11-year-old boy named Nate and his best friends as they navigate sixth grade with humor and style.


Nate’s misadventures will begin with an exclusive look at BIG NATE during the halftime presentation of Nickelodeon and CBS Sports’ slime-filled NFL WILD CARD GAME ON NICKELODEON, airing Sunday, Jan. 16 at 4:30 PM, ET.


Paramount+’s BIG NATE will feature brand-new original storylines centered on Nate, a sixth-grade kid who has a never-ending need to prove his awesomeness to the world. Whether he’s dealing with disasters at home or detention at school, Nate Wright is no stranger to a challenge. Luckily, he’s able to express himself through the world of cartoons that he creates. Charming, mischievous and a magnet for misadventure, Nate always finds a way to turn trouble into fun.


In the series premiere, “The Legend of the Gunting,” Nate has multiple detentions on the docket, per usual. But this time he is only one detention away from a fate only whispered about in the halls of P.S. 38. Meanwhile, the unhinged new kid is determined to become Nate’s prank partner. Jack Black (“Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle”) guest stars as Brad Gunter, a prankster of epic proportions and Nate’s inspiration, and Daniel Jacobs (“All Hail King Julien: Exiled”) lends his voice as Bentley Carter, the new kid at P.S. 38 eager to wreak havoc through the school on teachers and students alike.


The stellar lineup of actors lending their voice talent to the beloved characters of BIG NATE include Ben Giroux (Nate Wright), Dove Cameron (Ellen Wright), Rob Delaney (Martin Wright), Bryce Charles (Dee Dee Holloway), Daniel MK Cohen (Francis Pope), Arnie Pantoja (Teddy Ortiz), Charlie Schlatter (Chad Applewhite), Kevin Michael Richardson (Principal Nichols), Carolyn Hennesy (Mrs. Godfrey), Nik Dodani (Randy), Betsy Sodaro (Kim), Lisa Kay Jennings (Gina), Chandni Parekh (Jenny), Todd Haberkorn (Artur), Ryan Garcia (Mr. Rosa), Mike Rivkin (Mr. Galvin) and Chester Rushing (Zeff).


BIG NATE is executive produced by Mitch Watson (“All Hail King Julien”) and John Cohen (“The Angry Birds Movie”) and produced by Amy McKenna (“Beware the Batman”), with Lincoln Peirce serving as consultant throughout development and production. Bridget McMeel is co-producer.


Peirce’s humor-based books about Nate and his friends have spent more than 150 weeks on the New York Times’ best-seller list. The BIG NATE book series (https://bignatebooks.com/) is published worldwide in 33 languages and available as ebooks and audiobooks and as an app, Big Nate: Comix by U! Additionally, the BIG NATE comic strip is syndicated by Andrews McMeel Syndication and appears in more than 400 newspapers and online daily at www.gocomics.com/bignate. The BIG NATE comic collections are published by Andrews McMeel Publishing, and the BIG NATE novels are published by HarperCollins Children’s Books.


BIG NATE joins Paramount+’s growing lineup of original and exclusive kids’ programming, including STAR TREK: PRODIGYRUGRATS and KAMP KORAL: SPONGEBOB’S UNDER YEARS, and original movies including THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE ON THE RUNTHE J TEAMPAW PATROL: THE MOVIE and CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG, which recently premiered on the service the same day it hit theaters and set a new record as the service’s most-watched original film.

Lincoln Peirce said Tuesday (1/11) that he’s excited that the strip he began 31 years ago – and which runs in 400 newspapers – will finally make it to TV. Pierce said that over the years film studios have expressed interest in Big Nate, but often talked about doing a live-action version. Pierce said he’s glad he was able to hold out for Nickelodeon, so Big Nate and his friends can look and act on screen the way they look in his comic strip.

“I’ve always thought ‘Big Nate’ could be a really fun TV show, but I never wanted to do live action. He’s a cartoon character,” Peirce told CentralMaine.com.

Before this show, Peirce had already converted the strip into a best-selling series of books, and it is also the basis for a traveling musical show.

Peirce serves as a consultant for the series. He said Tuesday he got to see all the scripts for the episodes and was able to “punch up” some of them, in an effort to make the characters sound more like they might in the comic strips and books.

Comcast, ViacomCBS Name Monty Sarhan as CEO of SkyShowtime Streaming Joint-Venture in Europe

The executive, who will be based in London, will lead the new subscription video-on-demand service in more than 20 European territories.

SkyShowtime CEO Monty Sarhan COURTESY OF COMCAST

Comcast and ViacomCBS have named Monty Sarhan the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of their pan-European streaming joint venture SkyShowtime.

The executive, who joined Comcast Cable in late 2019 as Senior Vice President (SVP) content acquisition after working at Epix and also has experience at Viacom, will assume his role later in January, following regulatory approval of the SkyShowtime venture, which is expected soon. He will be based in London, reporting to the board of SkyShowtime, which is using the brand names of Comcast’s European pay TV giant Sky and ViacomCBS’ Showtime. Sarhan will work alongside the company’s leadership team, 

The two companies struck a deal in August 2021 to launch a new subscription video-on-demand service in more than 20 European territories, including Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland, this year. The territories encompass 90 million homes.

“Monty is ideally suited to take the reins of SkyShowtime, drawing upon his extensive experience spanning the entertainment industry, having worked in programming, strategy and distribution at subscription services and across multichannel video programming distribution, video-on-demand and direct-to-consumer platforms,” Andrea Zappia, Sky’s Executive Vice President (EVP) and CEO, new markets & businesses, said in a memo obtained by The Hollywood Reporter.

“Monty’s career at the forefront of both content and technology, his ability to scale businesses and his knowledge of both joint venture partners make him the perfect leader for the business as we bring the very best entertainment, movies and original series from the ViacomCBS, Sky and NBCUniversal portfolio of brands to SkyShowtime,” highlighted Raffaele Annecchino, president and CEO of ViacomCBS Networks International, in another memo.

The executives noted that Sarhan in his most recent role has overseen the finance, operations, compliance and strategy teams and was “negotiating many of Comcast Cable’s content partnerships.” Before that, he worked at MGM’s premium television service Epix as executive vp and General Manager (GM), “leading the service to record subscriber growth and launching its direct-to-consumer service,” the memos noted. “Prior to that, Monty worked at ViacomCBS and was part of the original launch team at Epix, which began as a ViacomCBS joint venture, joining as its head of business affairs.” Before Epix, Sarhan served as Vice President (VP) in Viacom’s Media Networks division.

Other leadership team members for SkyShowtime will be announced “in due course,” according to the memos.

Annecchino in his memo highlighted how the joint venture fits into his team’s planned global rollout of streaming services across the world. “This year, ViacomCBS will continue the acceleration of our global streaming expansion as we embrace a truly differentiated strategy across every segment of the streaming universe and capitalize on our robust global content pipeline,” he wrote. “As we continue to prioritize the global rollout of Paramount+ and the expansion of Pluto TV, we are also preparing to launch the premium streaming service SkyShowtime, a joint venture with Comcast, which will be available in more than 20 European markets beginning in 2022.”

Sky Group CEO Dana Strong in 2021 touted SkyShowtime, saying it would “combine the best of the U.S. and Europe with iconic brands and world-class entertainment for millions of consumers,” providing 10,000-plus hours of entertainment.

SkyShowtime will bring together entertainment, movies and original series from the NBCUniversal, Sky and ViacomCBS portfolio of brands, including titles from Nickelodeon, Showtime, Paramount+ Originals, Sky Studios, Universal Pictures, and Peacock.

The line-up will encompass scripted dramas, kids and family, key franchises, premiere movies, local programming and documentaries and factual content.

SkyShowtime will be launched in markets outside Sky’s existing pay TV and OTT footprint. According to the pair, it will ultimately be available to consumers in Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Kosovo, Montenegro, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden.

The partnership will be structured as a joint venture, with equal investment and joint control by ViacomCBS and Comcast. Further detail on the SkyShowtime service offering, including subscription price, will be announced at a later date.

Sky Showtime’s unveiling in mid-2021 followed growing speculation that Comcast and ViacomCBS were exploring a global streaming partnership, with the former’s CEO Brian Roberts and the latter’s chairman Shari Redstone and CEO Bob Bakish reportedly meeting in New York to discuss a potential alliance.

It also came just a few weeks after news that Comcast was expanding its US streamer Peacock into Europe for the first time as part of Sky. ViacomCBS-owned streamer Paramount+, meanwhile, is being rolled out via Sky in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy.

Execs have previously said that SkyShowtime and Paramount+ will not be available in the same territories, although content will be shared between the two.

Speaking at Mipcom recently, ViacomCBS SVP Programming and Acquisitions Douglas Craig sought to “calm confusion” surrounding Showtime’s overlap with Paramount+, stating that, while content-crossover will be plentiful, neither streamer will be available in the same territory.
