Paramount+ Announces Colin from Accounts; The Really Loud House Gets Halloween Movie
Paramount+ announced that the hit Australian comedy series Colin from Accounts will debut in the U.S. on Thursday, November 9, exclusively on the service. The first two episodes of the series' eight episode long first season will be available to stream at launch, with two new episodes dropping weekly on Thursdays through November 30. Colin from Accounts first debuted last year in Australia to critical and viewer acclaim with The Guardian calling it a "hilariously joyful piece of TV." Colin from Accounts is centered on Ashley (Harriet Dyer) and Gordon (Patrick Brammall), two single(ish), complex humans who are brought together by a nipple flash, a car accident and an injured dog. The series is about flawed, funny people choosing each other and being brave enough to show their true selves, scars and all, as they navigate life together. In addition to Dyer and Brammall, the series stars Emma Harvie as Megan, Helen Thomson as Lynelle, Genevieve Hegney as Chiara, Michael Logo as Brett and Tai Hara as James.
Just in time for Halloween, Nickelodeon revealed the trailer for its brand-new original feature-length movie, A Really Haunted Loud House. In celebration of the spookiest season, the Louds return with their annual Halloween Spooktacular filled with frightful tricks, delightful treats, spellbinding costumes and original music. A Really Haunted Loud House will be available to stream beginning Thursday, September 28, on Paramount+ in the U.S. and Canada and premiere on Nickelodeon that same evening at 7 p.m. (ET/PT).
In A Really Haunted Loud House, Lincoln Loud and his best friend Clyde skip the Loud family's Halloween Spooktacular to attend an over-the-top party hosted by the new cool kid at school, Xander, leaving his sisters to plan the annual event and grandiose neighborhood performance, while Dad fights his own demons and avoids being captured by teenage werewolf hunters. When Xander and his mob of followers decide to play tricks and attack the Loud house, Lincoln, his sisters and Clyde must work together to save Halloween, leading to an epic standoff in the town's junkyard. The cast of The Really Loud House season one will reprise their roles as members of the beloved Loud family in the movie and season two of the series: Wolfgang Schaeffer as Lincoln Loud; Brian Stepanek as Lynn Loud Sr.; Jolie Jenkins as Rita Loud; Eva Carlton as Leni Loud; Sophia Woodward as Luna Loud; Catherine Bradley as Luan Loud; Annaka Fourneret as Lynn Loud; Aubin Bradley as Lucy Loud; Ella Allan as Lola Loud; Mia Allan as Lana Loud; Lexi Janicek as Lisa Loud; Lexi DiBenedetto as Lori Loud; and August Michael Peterson as Lily Loud. Jahzir Bruno plays Lincoln's best friend, Clyde McBride. Martin Fajardo (Now and Then) plays Xander.
