Remember the “Hey Arnold!” gang you used to watch as a kid? Well, hang tight as this news is for you.

Lang first discussed this when “Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie” was released in November 2017, which he thought did not give fans what they wanted. ” When the movie premiered, in your age group (the millenials), we totally killed.”

“With the Nickelodeon audience, not so great. So they decided, ‘Nah we’re not gonna do it,'” he said when asked if “Hey Arnold” would be back with new episodes on Nickelodeon.  

“Netflix, Amazon, Apple were all people that they were going to go out to with the idea of trying to make a season six of ‘Hey Arnold!'” he then added, but clarified: “We haven’t heard anything yet, but we’ve got our fingers crossed.”
