Production

On March 1, 2022, it was announced that Paramount+ had begun production on a musical remake of the 2000 Nickelodeon film Snow Day.[2] The cast was unveiled alongside the announcement. Like the original film, it was shot primarily in Canadian territories despite being set in Syracuse, New York.[3]

Soundtrack

The film’s soundtrack was composed by Gabriel Mann. The soundtrack album was released alongside the film by Republic Records.[4]

Release

Marketing

A trailer was released on November 17, 2022, alongside the film’s poster.[5]

Release

Snow Day was made available to stream on Paramount+ on December 16, 2022.[6] It also premiered on Nickelodeon the same day and was made available on international Paramount+ services the following day.[7]

Reception

Like the original, the film received mixed reviews from critics. John Serba of Decider gave the film a negative review, saying that "None of this slapdash also-ran cheapo crud is for anyone older than 10 or younger than nine and seven-eighths" and that "If a blizzard cancels school, have the kids watch something else."[8] Joly Herman of Common Sense Media gave the film a 3/5, saying that "Viewers might wonder whether the theme of having a snow day is deserving of a full-length musical movie, but as soon as that thought enters the head, a fun dance number distracts, and some clever songs can elicit a smile."[9]
