Viacom is rebooting Rugrats as a TV series and live-action movie. The original creators will return to revive the classic cartoon for 26 episodes on Nick, and Paramount Players will create the CGI live-action film for a 2020 debut. One exec explains, “Kids who grew up with Tommy Pickles and the Rugrats crew will now be able to share that experience with their own children”—meaning the nostalgia entertainment is meant to reel in both Millennial parents and their kids.
