Hiro, Oasis, Bacon and Bunk, Super Charlie and Super Lauren and Noodles! comprise Nickelodeon's first international development slate, which the network claims demonstrates its commitment to developing diverse content on a global scale.

Non-verbal animation Oasis (7x1'), series created by Tuba Entertainment in Korea and coproduced by Nickelodeon, France's TF1 and TeamTo, and Alessandro Ferrari's Japanese-inspired series of snowboarding shorts, Hiro, are both being produced as part of a new creative process established by Nickelodeon International.

Both will initially be delivered as a series of shorts, subsequently offered as long-form series to be made available to Nickelodeon's international channels and broadcast partners.

Billy goat series Bacon and Bunk, co-developed with long-time partners Nickelodeon, YTV and TF1, initially piloted by Nickelodeon in the US, will now be developed further by Nickelodeon International.

Super Charlie and Super Lauren, a sibling rivalry cartoon from the UK's Brothers McLeod, together with Asian comic book adaptation Noodles!, have also been commissioned for further concept and story development.

Nina Hahn, VP of development at Nickelodeon International, said the new development represents the voice and vision of creators around the globe, and "continues to promote Nick International's ongoing mission to find the kid voice lurking in all of us."

In addition to the five projects announced today, Nickelodeon has also confirmed that three individual projects from 2006 are to be developed with international partners, DOMO-kun, Akihabara@deep and Fortunatto.

Nickelodeon Plans Live Action Version of Avatar: The Last Airbender!

According to Animation World Network Headline News, Nickelodeon is planning to make a live action version of Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Shyamalan To Adapt Nickelodeon's Avatar

January 09, 2007

Coming off the lackluster performance of LADY IN THE WATER, M. Night Shyamalan has signed on to write, direct and produce the live-action adaptation of Nickelodeon's popular animated series, AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER, reports the trades. Paramount Pictures' MTV Films and Nick Movies, who are producing, plans to live-action adaptation into a trilogy with Shyamalan.

The film will be the first Shyamalan has directed in which he has not written an original screenplay. He previously co-wrote 1999's STUART LITTLE.

AVATAR was created by Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, Influenced by Asian art, mythology and fighting styles, the animated series is set in a world where the masters of the four nations -- Water, Earth, Fire and Air -- can manipulate their native elements. With the Fire Nation waging war, two teens free the Avatar, master of all elements and his flying bison to help restore peace to the world.

Though the Nick series previously existed, the live-action feature may have a difficult fight over using the title AVATAR. As previously announced, James Cameron will begin production on his AVATAR titled feature later in the year. Cameron has been developing his project for 12 years. Both Cameron and Nick claim they have registered the title with the Motion Picture Assn. of America.
