The Cast’s Latest Projects: From Netflix Rom-Coms to Directing
Following the abrupt cancellation of the *iCarly* revival series in 2023 after three successful seasons, the cast has been busier than ever. Their post-revival work demonstrates a clear shift toward adult roles and behind-the-scenes creative control.Miranda Cosgrove’s New Film Career: The Wrong Paris and Mother of the Bride
Miranda Cosgrove, who successfully transitioned from teen idol to producer on the revival, has been heavily focused on her film career in 2025. She recently starred in the romantic comedy *Mother of the Bride* (2024) and has another major project slated for release. * The Wrong Paris (2025): Cosgrove is set to star in the upcoming romantic comedy *The Wrong Paris*, premiering on Netflix. The film, which features her alongside Pierson Fodé, is a key focus of her 2025 acting schedule, marking a distinct step into a new genre. * A New iCarly Project: Despite the cancellation, Cosgrove has repeatedly assured fans that the story will not end on a cliffhanger. She confirmed in late 2025 that a script for an untitled *iCarly* film, intended to resolve the series' final plot points—including the long-awaited "Carly and Freddie relationship" (Creddie)—was nearly complete, with plans to begin filming in early 2026.Nathan Kress’s Shift to Directing and Voice Acting
Nathan Kress, who played the technical director and occasional love interest Freddie Benson, has found significant success on both sides of the camera. * Behind the Camera: Kress directed several episodes of the *iCarly* revival, showcasing his evolution from actor to director. His work in this capacity has opened doors for future creative endeavors. * Voice of Chuck E. Cheese: In a surprising but fitting role for the former Nickelodeon star, Kress voiced the iconic character Chuck E. Cheese in a new holiday film released in late 2025. This project highlights his continued work in animated features and voice-over roles, a skill he developed early in his career. * Future iCarly Film: Like Cosgrove, Kress has been vocal about the planned *iCarly* movie, confirming in late 2025 that the goal is to get the film greenlit and shot in 2026 to provide a proper resolution for the fans.Jerry Trainor, Laci Mosley, and Jaidyn Triplett Updates
The supporting cast members are also forging ahead with exciting new ventures that build on their comedic and dramatic talents. * Jerry Trainor (Spencer Shay): The perpetually zany older brother continues his strong connection with the fan base, making appearances at major conventions like GalaxyCon in 2025, where he often shares insights into his iconic roles in *iCarly* and *Drake & Josh*. Trainor has also hinted at "big future projects" in the works, potentially tied to the new *iCarly* film. * Laci Mosley (Harper): Mosley, who brought a fresh, modern comedic energy to the revival as Carly’s roommate, is an acclaimed comedian and podcaster. Her hit podcast, *Scam Goddess*, is currently being adapted into a television series, which she is wrapping production on. This move solidifies her status as a multifaceted creator, writer, and producer. * Jaidyn Triplett (Millicent): The young star of the revival, Jaidyn Triplett, is focusing on her burgeoning film career. She is soon to appear in the upcoming film *Huntology*, in addition to pursuing her passion as a singer-songwriter.The Jennette McCurdy Factor: A Bestselling Author and New TV Series
One of the most significant and widely discussed topics surrounding the *iCarly* universe is the absence of Jennette McCurdy, who famously played Carly’s best friend, Sam Puckett. McCurdy chose not to participate in the revival, a decision she details in her explosive 2022 memoir, *I'm Glad My Mom Died*. * A New Career Path: McCurdy officially quit acting in 2018 to pursue a career in writing and directing, a decision driven by her desire for creative freedom and to distance herself from the pressures of her childhood career. * Memoir Adaptation: In one of the most exciting recent developments, McCurdy’s bestselling memoir is being adapted into a television series for Apple TV+. The show, which is loosely inspired by the book and her life, will be created, written, executive produced, directed, and showrun by McCurdy herself. * Star-Studded Series: Adding to the buzz, the series is set to star Hollywood icon Jennifer Aniston, confirming the high-profile nature of McCurdy’s new career as a powerful voice in writing and filmmaking. She is also planning to release a novel in 2026. The transition of the *iCarly* cast from a beloved Nickelodeon sitcom to a group of successful adult actors, directors, and authors is a testament to their enduring talent. While the revival series is over, the promise of a final *iCarly* movie and the individual successes of the cast—especially the groundbreaking new career of Jennette McCurdy—ensure that the world of *iCarly* remains a vibrant and relevant part of pop culture in 2025 and beyond.Detail Author:
