Deadline reports Nickelodeon and Paramount+ are currently developing Monster High: The Movie 2, a follow-up to this year’s impressive launch. Todd Holland (Monster High, Firehouse Dog, Malcolm in the Middle) will return as director and executive producer.

Per Deadline, “Monster High The Movie follows Clawdeen Wolf (Miia Harris) as she arrives at Monster High with a dark secret. With the help of her friends Draculaura (Nayah Damasen) and Frankie Stein (Ceci Balagot), she is able to embrace her true monster heart and save the school from total destruction. The film also stars Case Walker, Kyle Selig, Marci T. House, Scotch Ellis Loring, Steve Valentine, Jy Prishkulnik, Lina Lecompte, Justin Derickson, Lilah Fitzgerald, and Nasiv Sall.”
