Rugrats Reboot: Live-Action and CGI Hybrid Movie Announced

Get ready for a surprising twist in the world of reboots—Rugrats is coming back, but this time as a live-action and CGI hybrid movie. According to Deadline, this new take on the classic ’90s cartoon is officially in the works, and it’s already getting some mixed reactions from fans.

A New Take on Rugrats

This reboot of Rugrats will mix live-action with CGI, a choice that has left some fans excited and others scratching their heads. The movie’s script is being co-written by Saturday Night Live star Mikey Day and Streeter Seidell, with Jason Moore directing. While we don’t have all the details on the plot, it’s safe to assume Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, and Lil will be back—along with their parents, Angelica, and Susie. However, with the live-action format, it seems likely that real babies will be cast, with CGI used for their facial movements.

What to Expect

While there’s not much info on the storyline, we do know that this live-action and CGI combination will bring a different look to the Rugrats we know. The question is, will this format be able to keep the same charm that made the original series so beloved? Fans are understandably curious about how this will play out, especially with the quirky style and humor of the original show.

Key Details:

Writers: Mikey Day and Streeter Seidell
Director: Jason Moore
Format: Live-action and CGI hybrid
Expected Characters: Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil, Angelica, and Susie

This reboot could either bring a fresh take to a classic series or feel like a strange departure from the original. Either way, we’ll be keeping an eye on how this project develops.
