Production
Rumors of a Loud House movie had existed ever since the show was in the middle of it's first season. Chris Savino denied this multiple times, when asked about it in public.
The real production started when Nickelodeon and Paramount approached to Savino for a film based on the series, one month before he was fired in 2017. Savino declined the offer multiple times telling them that:
"I love these characters, and when I create episodes for the show, I feel like the Loud family is part of my very own, but even if I were to make a 90 minute movie out of my characters and show. The three questions I'd ask myself would be "What would make the movie special and unique? "What would push itself off the ground?" and "How do you turn a television related to a Sunday Funny into a 90 minute format?" To do a movie about them doing the same things they do everyday would be a horrible mistake, and I'd never forgive myself for that."
When Savino was fired, Kyle Marshall continued the show, while developing the spin off show Los Casagrandes with Mike Rubiner. Kyle got a call from Cyma Zarghami, President, Nickelodeon Group. Asking if he wanted to develop a movie based off The Loud House. Kyle said no at first because he was scared that it would fail in the ratings due to the premise of the show. But after watching The Rugrats Movie with his son, he thought that he could do the same thing to The Loud House.
The film went through several drafts and ideas, one idea involved Lincoln and his sisters running away from home after finding out that Lynn Sr. and Rita were going to have 2-3 children instead of 11, feeling suicidal about the whole situation.
Kyle didn't really like this one saying that "It's not like finding something much bigger than a life story, and it seems like a rip-off of another movie....I think.".
Another idea involved Lori finally moving into college, meeting her long lost cousin and finding out that they have the same type of family but with genders swapped.
Mike and Kyle didn't really feel the need to develop this further because at the last second of writing the script, Kyle got scared about it being an animated Threeway of Cheaper By The Dozen, Meet the Parents and Greece.
So the two wrote the script in such a way that it would make the audience connect with the characters more than they did in the show.
One of the earliest decisions for the new script was to give the Casagrande family a very important role as they would help Lincoln out in his situation, and bond together with the rest of his siblings and be given some deeper character development to them, (specifically how Ronnie Anne and Bobby lost their dad and how the family helped them cope with it).
Trivia
