By now we all know that Pixie has caught the acting bug and will appear in Fred: The Movie. And if you’re a Pixie fan and didn’t know that, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!?!
Anyway, more details on this movie project have been revealed in recent days.
First of all, the movie will not be shown in theaters. It’s going straight to tv; Nickelodeon to be specific. It’s set to air this summer on the network.
If you don’t know much about this character, Fred, here’s a little background, courtesy of the NY Times:
Lucas Cruikshank, a 16-year-old from Nebraska, created Fred Figglehorn about four years ago. Since then, the character has become a hit on YouTube. In aggregate, his videos have been viewed over 400 million times. Fred’s whiny voice strikes a lot of adults as fingernails on a chalkboard, but children fall on the floor laughing.
