Miranda Cosgrove and Pierson Fode reunite for new Netflix movie The Wrong Paris... more than a decade after their iCarly episode together
Miranda Cosgrove and Pierson Fode are coming aboard to star in the new Netflix romantic comedy The Wrong Paris.
The film will be directed by Janeen Damian (Irish Wish) from a script by Nicole Henrich, according to Deadline.
The project will be a reunion more than a decade in the making, after Fode, 32, made his acting debut in a 2012 episode of iCarly, which starred Cosgrove, 31.
Both Cosgrove and Fode shared the report with their fans on Instagram on Thursday, as they expressed their enthusiasm for the project.
Fode stated, '“We’ll always have Paris” -Casablanca I have a strong feeling we’ll take over another @netflix #1,' referring to his 2022 movie The Man From Toronto which did debut at #1 on Netflix back in late June 2022.

He added, 'Anyways I’m Looking for someone to teach me French and in return I can teach them how to wrangle a bull while singing “Another bites the dust” at a full sprint. Show of hands please.'
Cosgrove took to her Instagram story, sharing an image of the Deadline report and tagging Fode with a white heart emoji, adding, 'So excited.'
The story follows Dawn (Cosgrove) as she finds herself desperate to get to Paris, France for a 'once-in-a-lifetime art opportunity.'
She decided to try out for a dating show reminiscent of The Bachelor, and manages to talk her way into the cast, when she's thrown for a loop.
Dawn ultimately learns that the dating show is not set in Paris, France, but instead Paris, Texas, a twist the producers didn't reveal during casting.
Now she finds herself desperate to get kicked off the show... though she finds herself falling for the show's bachelor, Trey (Fode).
Brad Krevoy will produce for MPCA with Michael Damian, with Janeen Damian, Amanda Phillips, Jimmy Townsend, Kelly Fraizer and Galen Fletcher serving as executive producers.
This project brings Fode's acting career full circle, 12 years after making his acting debut as a guest star in an October 2012 episode of iCarly.

He played a character named Todd, revealing in a Spy News Magazine interview in 2016 that his character had to hit on Cosgrove's Carly Shay.
'The first role I ever did I had four lines on a Nickelodeon show called iCarly,' Fode began.
'I was playing a character dressed up for a Halloween party. I hit on Miranda Cosgrove, then was freaked out and ran away because she had a strange voice, that was it. It was kind of fun,' he said.
Fode will next be seen in the film It's Time with Sam Trammell and Cosgrove recently starred in Netflix's Mother of the Bride, which debuted in May.
