Hey, Football Head! Shake off that Hollywood rust and get camera ready RUL fast because “Hey Arnold!” the movie is may be happening!!

Those of us who grew up in the 90s got a major shot of nostalgia right into our aortas recently when Nickelodeon introduced The Splat, eight-hour blocks of original programming featuring your favorite toons from yesteryear.

The news gets even sweeter, though; it was just announced Nick is currently developing a brand new “Hey Arnold!” movie that reportedly picks up right where the series left off and deals with the show's biggest question: What happened to Arnold's parents?

You just get the chills, too?

There is no immediate information about a release date for the project, but if this goes well, we could very well see a deluge of older shows getting rebooted for TV.

Is Eliza from “The Wild Thornberrys” even still alive with her reckless parents? Did Doug from “Doug” ever deal with his clinical depression? How does CatDog pee or procreate?

Sooo many questions that can now be answered!

Russell Hicks, the president of content development and production for Nickelodeon Group, told Variety,

Kids who grew up on these characters are now of the age that they are having kids and families themselves. Our library has come to fruition and it's time for it to start coming back to life.

Great. Amazing. Can't be more excited. Seriously, though, can someone answer how CatDog pees?
