Today, Nickelodeon announced that the newest Nicktoon, Wylde Pak, will premiere on Friday, June 6th at 7:30 P.M. ET/PT in the U.S. and later this year internationally. Produced by Nickelodeon Animation, Wylde Pak centers on half siblings Lily and Jack learn to navigate new family dynamics of a multigenerational and multicultural blended family under one roof for the first time.
In the half-hour first episode, “Best Summer Ever?,” Jack and Lily are half siblings living on opposite ends of the world—until Jack shows up on Lily’s doorstep for the summer. Their arguing sends the family’s new grooming trailer careening through town and they must save their family’s livelihood and Halmoni, who is stuck inside. The episode can be seen now on YouTube.

Nickelodeon today also revealed key art, and additional voice cast members, including Gillian Jacobs (The Bear) as Alice Kelly, Jack’s biological mom and a world-renowned documentarian taking on adventures abroad, and Jon Glaser (Running Point) as Chuck, the family’s happy go lucky and eccentric neighbor who always seems to know a guy.
Wylde Pak stars Nikki Castillo (K.C. Undercover) as the voice of Lily Pak, a competitive and fun loving 11 year-old, and Benjamin Plessala (SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run) as Jack Wylde, Lily’s 13 year-old adventurous half brother who just came into town for the summer. Additional voices include Ben Pronsky (The Loud House) as William Wylde, Jack and Lily’s fun-loving dad, Jee Young Han (Unprisoned) as the voice of Min-Ju Pak, Lily’s energetic mom and Jack’s stepmom, and Jean Yoon (Kim’s Convenience) as the voice of Halmoni, Min’s unpredictable mom, and Lily and Jack’s caring yet stubborn grandma.
Wylde Pak is co-created by Paul Watling (The Tiger’s Apprentice) and Kyle Marshall (The Loud House), who both serve as executive producers alongside Seonna Hong (The Wild Robot) and Conrad Vernon (Shrek). Development and production are overseen by Claudia Spinelli, Senior Vice President of TV Series Animation at Nickelodeon, and Daniel Wineman, Vice President of Original Animation Development. The series is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
