    ICarly's Jerry Trainor And Jennette McCurdy to Star in New Movie, Best Player

    Jerry Trainor and Jennette McCurdy, stars of the hit Nickelodeon's series iCarly, will headline the cast of an all-new, original television movie, Best Player.

    The Nickelodeon movie centers on two cyber athletes who inadvertently learn that the real world can be just as exciting and rewarding as a virtual one. Shooting will begin Oct. 24 in Vancouver, BC, for a 2010 premiere on Nickelodeon.

    "Best Player is a funny and compelling story about online gaming taken to the extreme," said Marjorie Cohn, Executive Vice president, Original Programming and Development, Nickelodeon. "This movie gives Jerry Trainor and Jennette McCurdy a new platform in which to showcase their talent and our audience will love seeing them star in these new comedic roles."

    In Best Player, Quincy (Jerry Trainor) is a thirty-something baggage handler by day and online video game master (known simply as "Q") by night. Perfectly happy to live in a tricked-out basement in his parents' home, Quincy has dedicated his life to being the best cyber multi-player athlete online. But Quincy's world gets turned upside down when his parents decide to sell their house and move to Florida. His only chance to maintain his "perfect" life is to enter a tournament introducing a brand-new video game — Black Hole — and win the prize money to buy his parents' house. As the current multi-player champion, Quincy thinks it's a done deal… until he encounters "Prodigy" (Jennette McCurdy), who threatens to annihilate him.

    Best Player is executive produced by Jessica Horowitz, Lauren Levine and Marjorie Cohn, the team behind Nickelodeon's Spectacular! Damon Santostefano directs from Rich Amberg's screenplay, which includes a rewrite from Justin Ware. Scott McAboy serves as Producer. Executive Producers also include Sandy Climan and Christine Foy.

    The movie took 24 days to make and was shot in Canada. Can't wait for it though.

    It should have a Prodigy/Quincy ending.

    Prodigy and Quincy. Quodigy? Princy?


    Either way it's disturbing if he's a thirty-something living in his parents basement.

    REALLY??? Where did you get that date? I looked everywhere and couldn't find any date at all! I wonder why they're waiting SO long after filming it to premiere it...

    I have no idea why they are waiting that long. It was finished filming this time last year, and they still haven't shown the movie yet...

    Oh..hmm. Idk how I missed that. Oh well. Thanks for letting me know! Yeah, I don't get at all why they're taking so long to premiere it..they haven't even shown a promo for it yet have they? You'd think that with iCarly being like, the #1 show for this age group right now (as Dan keeps reminding everyone) that they'd really promote this movie that has 2 its main characters staring in it. I don't get Nick sometimes. This is part of why I will always be a Disney girl at heart...though iCarly is AWESOME, so they're kinda winning me over a LITTLE ;-)

    Nah, sadly they haven't shown a promo for it. Dan is just advertising it, it's apart of his job.
    iCarly is starting to become a bit boring for me, used to watch disney a little though.

    Yeah, I think iCarly is starting to wind down. The more recent episodes just aren't as original anymore. Sad day. :-(
