The film was announced on March 16, 2007 via a blog which was posted on Waterman Studios' official site, stating that a film of the popular series Waterman would be made. The film will feature the voice of comedic actor Leslie Nielsen. Nielsen died on November 28, 2010,[1] but had already completed recording for his part in the film.[2] The release date was set for winter 2007, then changed to 2008. On January 14, 2008, Bryan Waterman stated that the film was only 40% done. He also stated that the film is "still moving ahead as scheduled." With over a year since any news on the project, a message was posted by him on February 3, 2009 stating, "That 2008 was a busy year for Waterman Studios" and that production of the film had come to a halt. In June 2011 during a live video on Vokle, he mentioned that he is aiming for a release of Christmas 2012.
