Still from the original series.

Status: Cancelled


Prometheus and Bob is a cartoon sketch from the late-1990's television show KaBlam! In 1998, a live-action film adaptation was announced by Nickelodeon Movies.[1] The film was to be directed by Harold Zwart and produced by Amy Heckerling and Twink Caplan.[2] Heckerling's interest in the series stemmed from her daughter's interest in it, as she said: "My daughter first brought 'Prometheus & Bob' to my attention and I was hooked instantly. [It] is intelligent and hilarious."[3]

The film likely didn't get far past the planning stage, and it ultimately fell through due to "lack of interest."[4] Not much else is known about the film or the progress that was made before its cancellation.
