“If I could just have @selenagomez near by to give me a hug when ever I needed it. I think things would be ok,” he tweeted.
Happy birthday, Jace!
We hope you get your wish!

Jace Norman, Sean Ryan Fox, Riele Downs, Ella Anderson and Cooper Barnes make up one of our favorite comedy teams on television right now.
It’s really no wonder just why the Henry Danger cast won Favorite TV show at the recent Kids’ Choice Awards — they’re hilarious…and they actually grew up right in front of our eyes without us even knowing it!
Seriously, Ella looks NOTHING like she did when the show started back in 2014.
Henry Danger currently airs on Saturdays @ 8PM ET/PT on Nickelodeon.

We’ve seen a ton of audition footage for our favorite Nickelodeon and Disney Channel actors…but when you go out for a Dan Schneider project, it’s a bit different.
Jace Norman, who is Henry of Henry Danger, dished NKD magazine about what it was like for him with his audition.
“I was auditioning for all the Nickelodeon stuff and then there this Dan Schneider project, and I didn’t know who he was at the time,” he says.
“I looked him up and was like, ‘Oh wow, he made all my favorite shows growing up.’ He created all of the Nickelodeon shows basically, like Zoey 101, Drake and Josh, and iCarly.”
What happens is that Dan has every actor audition with one particular sketch that he wrote.
Jace shares, “I don’t know if he just sees if you have comedic timing or what, but it’s this weird sketch where you play a character called Alex, who’s auditioning for a part. The character plays different characters.”
Obviously, he booked the part — but he didn’t know exactly what part it was.
“I knew I was one of the leads, but I didn’t know I was playing Henry, it was called like, Marve Mars, and I played David,” Jace remembers.
“I think people did that so we couldn’t tell what was going on. I was like, ‘Oh, I’m Henry of Henry Danger’ when I got the script.”
Well, this is super exciting news — Henry Danger is getting the movie treatment!
The news was announced this morning by President Cyma Zarghami at the Viacom Earnings Call.
While no plot has been announced, the show’s stars Jace Norman, Cooper Barnes, Riele Downs, Ella Anderson and Sean Ryan Fox are sure to be on board for the big screen adaption.
If you didn’t know, Henry Danger is also getting the animated treatment, too!
The animated series, called The Adventures of Kid Danger and Captain Man, has 10 episodes coming and will follow Kid Danger and Captain Man as they face new adventures—battling bizarre criminals and supervillains with their sharp wit and amazing crime-fighting skills.
Jace Norman is having a major fight with a tub of frozen-to-the-core Summer Swirl flavored ice cream in another exclusive clip from Nickelodeon’s Sizzling Summer Camp Special.
The Henry Danger star takes on the role of Cooper, the ice cream scooper at a local shop and is eager to serve JoJo Siwa a sample of the flavor — but the ice cream just doesn’t want to be served at all.
In the upcoming special, the Nickelodeon stars find themselves in danger when they learn their campsite at sleepaway camp has been haunted for years by mysterious, legendary creatures.
The special will air on June 4th @ 7PM ET/PT on Nickelodeon.
Here are all the stars that are in it: Kira Kosarin, Sean Ryan Fox, Ella Anderson, Riele Downs, Jack Griffo, Maya Le Clark, Chris Tallman, Lizzy Greene, Casey Simpson, Mace Coronel, Kyla Drew Simmons, Aidan Gallagher, Brian Stepanek, and Allison Munn. School of Rock‘s Jade Pettyjohn, Aidan Miner, Breanna Yde, Ricardo Hurtado, and Tony Cavalero, and Jagger Eaton, too.
We’re so excited to watch Nickelodeon’s Sizzling Summer Camp Special tonight!
In the special TV event, pretty much all the Nickelodeon stars find themselves in danger when they learn their campsite at sleepaway camp has been haunted for years by mysterious, legendary creatures.

We love to hear stories about how actors got their big break and Jace Norman’s is actually a cool one.
The Henry Danger star spilled to HuffPo’s The Tea newsletter that his big break is actually in thanks to his brother, Xander.
“I used to live in New Mexico on a farm,” he recalls. “My brother and I had this camera and we would just make movies. We were really big fans of Star Wars.”

Jace reveals that it was his brother who “asked if he could go audition for an agent, and I went too. Things ended up working out pretty well for me somehow… and not too good for him.”
He joked later on, “It’s kind of awkward.”
Jace Norman has starred as the title character in Nickelodeon’s Henry Danger for what seems like a long time.
The star of the show recently opened up about the series and how it portrays superheroes for kids.
“I think that what makes the show really great, in my opinion, is that the superheroes are the most irresponsible people and they should not be defending anybody,” Jace shared in an interview with Build Series.
“They can barely take care of themselves. People still think, ‘Oh, there are these amazing superheroes,’ but you see the behind the scenes of us and we don’t even know what’re doing.”
Jace also opened up about growing up side by side with Henry.
“Me and Henry grew at the same time. When I started, I was this nervous kid and then Henry was this nervous kid because he just got this job,” Jace shared.
He adds, “That’s kind of the transition I’ve been making in the show. [In] Season 3, the character of Henry has been going in that direction.”
Henry Danger‘s season three will conclude in August this year, and season four will pick up in the fall.
Not only is Henry Danger getting their very own movie, but there’s an animated series coming as well.
Star Jace Norman opened up in a recent interview about going from a live action show to the animated one.
“It’s much harder, at least for me,” he admitted. “I’m so used to being able to use my physical body to do half of my work. [With animation], you have to sell it all with your voice and trust that the animators can do the other half basically.”
While it’s a more difficult role for Jace, he’s still enjoying it.
“It’s cool because, as you said, we can expand the world so much!” Jace says. “I think I’m most excited to see the vehicles that we have that we’ve talked about on the live-action but have never really seen.”
One thing on the animated show he really wants to see is Swellview!
“[For the live action show] we usually shoot indoors because it’s a multi-camera sitcom, so we’re getting to do more outside stuff on the animated series.”
JoJo Siwa is about to break into the big screen — and she’s doing it with none other than Henry Danger‘s Jace Norman.
JoJo, 14, and Jace, 17, will be starring in a new Nickelodeon TV movie called Inside Voice. The plot follows a boy who cannot stop saying his deepest inner thoughts — and his quest to get his brain back to normal with the help of his sister.
The two worked together in Nickelodeon’s Sizzling Summer Camp Special, in which Jace played a struggling ice-cream shop worker, and their on-screen chemistry must have caught the eye of Nickelodeon.
JoJo posted about the opportunity on Instagram yesterday, and her excitement mirrors our own.
“Ahhhh I am so excited!!!!” she writes in the caption, with no shortage of emojis. “I can finally tell you that I am in Canada filming my first movie !!!! It’s called ‘Inside Voice’ ! I Can’t wait to show you all some behind the scenes pictures on my Instagram stories!!!”
The film will be out in 2018.
Even famous people are obsessed with their phones.
We recently caught up with some of JJJ‘s favorite celebs and asked them about their most-used phone apps.
See what they had to say:
Sabrina Carpenter: “Oh, that’s hard! I don’t really play games or anything on my phone. I don’t have time! I’d say Instagram!”
Brent Rivera: “Oh, that’s a hard one. My favorite app I’d have to say is probably Instagram or something. I don’t want to be cliche. I don’t really know what app, I don’t really play any games except like this one game that’s a plane game and I have to land a plane. It’s so fun! It’s like the best thing ever, so maybe that’s my favorite app. It’s called X-Plane 10.”
Marcus Scrinber: “My favorite app, and I’m going to do a shameless plug, but my favorite app is YouTube! I love watching all the amazing videos that people like Brent put out and all those funny clips. YouTube is just probably one of my favorite apps, Instagram like Brent says, I love the iMessage app, it’s pretty cool too.”
Jace Norman: “Probably Snapchat. No, Instagram. Instagram, for sure.”
Peyton List: “Instagram is definitely the social that I check the most. I feel like I can get lost on the explore page and just looking up my friends’ photos. And once you start creeping, it’s hard to stop!”
Kendra-Leigh Timmins: “Definitely Instagram, because I think pictures are such a fun way to capture memories!”
TELL JJJ: Which phone app do you use the most?

“Me and Henry grew at the same time,” Jace shared in a recent interview of connecting with his on-screen persona.

We still can’t get over the fact that it’s been 10 whole years since iCarly premiered on Nickelodeon!
Nathan Kress, who starred on the show from its first episode in 2007 to the season finale in 2012, took to Twitter on Friday (September 8) to thank fans for the amazing experience.
“10 years ago today, everything changed,” he wrote. “I will forever be grateful for the cast, crew, and fans that made the iCarly saga so incredible.”
“Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart for letting us into your homes & lives for the past decade,” he added. “It’s been a truly unforgettable honor.” (ICYMI, see what he recently had to say about a possible reunion episode!)
Other celebs who gave a shout-out to iCarly include series creator Dan Schneider, Cree Cicchino (who starred in special Game Shakers that paid homage to iCarly this weekend), and Henry Danger‘s Jace Norman.
Fans have been celebrating the anniversary with all the best GIFs as well.

If you didn’t hear the sad news, cutie pie couple Zach Clayton and Daniella Perkins split over the weekend.
“Zach & I decided it would be best for us to just be friends. We both have so much going on and it’s best for both of us,” Daniella announced on her Twitter on Saturday, with Zach echoing the statement.
He writes, “Dani and I have both decided it would be best for us to just be friends. We both have so much going on and it’ll best for both of us.”
However, it seems like there’s more to the story than just them both being busy right now and Zach is pointing fingers — right at Jace Norman.
Jace stars with Daniella in the upcoming Nickelodeon movie, Inside Voice, and it seems like he could be the reason behind the breakup.
“how does it feel coming in between people’s relationships @Jacenorman,” Zach wrote, calling him out. “what’s up henry danger, nickelodeon called you already and said to not say anything? think twice before stepping between pops relationships.”
Daniella says that it’s not true though and that she never cheated on Zach.
“I wouldn’t do that,” she shared in an Instagram Live video. “I’ve spent all day so sad that you guys think that and it sucks so much…People just sometimes grow apart and you get busy with everything and it’s just better to be friends.”
Henry Danger kicked off filming for season 5 in August, and we have so many questions.
Namely: what is going on with Jace Norman‘s hair?
The 17-year-old actor, who plays the title role, posted an Instagram today with his hair cropped on the sides, pulled back in the middle in a blonde ponytail, and complete with a goatee, sideburns, and a dangly earring. It looks super different, to say the least.
“Are you playing a genie?” one user joked.
Jace also posted a video to Instagram Stories revealing the transformation.
Only time will tell what this ~lewk~ is for!
Henry Danger is officially animated and JJJ got our hands on the first look clip for the new series, The Adventures of Kid Danger!
The new 10-episode, half-hour animated series will follows the heroic Kid Danger and Captain Man as they embark on brave new adventures—battling bizarre criminals and super villains with their sharp wit and amazing crime-fighting skills.
The series will also reveal brand-new areas of the superheroes’ headquarters for the first time, including the Man Cave tube system, which propels the crime fighters into adventure; and the Man Cave garage, filled with crime-fighting vehicles and gadgets used on missions.
Jace Norman, Cooper Barnes, Riele Downs, Sean Ryan Fox, Ella Anderson, Michael D. Cohen, and Jeffrey Nicholas Brown will also voice the same characters they play in Henry Danger.
The Adventures of Kid Danger will premiere on Nickelodeon in the new year.
Jace Norman, like all of us, doesn’t actually know if Henry Danger will be back for a 5th season on Nickelodeon or not.
Speaking with J-14 recently, the actor opened up about the future of the series.
“We are on Season 4. We have about two more episodes to film and then we don’t know about Season 5 yet,” Jace shared, saying that “this could be the last season, it could not be…we’re not sure yet.”
So, if this is the end of the series, it will join School of Rock, The Thundermans and Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn in leaving the network next year.
“We actually haven’t even shot the [possible] series finale. That’s the next episode, so I have no idea until I read the script,” Jace added of how far in advance he knows what’s going to happen. “We get it the morning of, when we start rehearsing. So, I feel like a lot people think I got the inside on everything. I literally read the scripts the morning we start rehearsing.”
But, if this is the end, Jace knows that he wants an actual series finale, not a cliffhanger episode treatment.
“I definitely hope that if this is our last season, we can do a nice finale. I know that Victorious did not get one, and fans got kind of upset,” he says. “I hope we’re able to, but it is what it is.”
Jace Norman is hanging up his Henry Danger mask…at least until next year.
Over the weekend, the Nickelodeon star shared a pic of him getting masked up for the show one last time before the cast and crew’s winter break.

While we still don’t have word about another season of Henry Danger, we can confirm that the animated series — The Adventures of Kid Danger will be premiering on Friday, January 19th @ 6:30PM ET/PT!
If you missed it, you can check out an exclusive sneak peek on JJJ now!
Jace Norman isn’t just an actor and digital influencer, he’s also a co-founder of Creator Edge Media.
The 17-year-old Henry Danger star helped create the company to ensure that digital influencers effectively partner with brands without being overly promotional, and allowing the creators more creative control with the brand marketing.
“I recently teamed up with my good friend Michael Gruen to launch Creator Edge Media—specifically because we were tired of seeing influencers not know how to effectively partner with brands, and brands not know how to work effectively with influencers,” Jace told Forbes. “We took it upon ourselves to solve that problem and connect brands with well-known social media influencers. We wanted to bridge that gap where people would actually care about the product being talked about in the post, and help influencers learn how to integrate it into their brand without being overly promotional.”
“What makes Creator Edge Media different is that we allow our clients to retain more creative control. Most of our clients are actors, so social media is really a side job for them, which means they’d rather make a bit less money to have a team that understands their brand quality over the long term,” Jace‘s partner and friend Michael Gruen said. “This is where having someone like Jace—someone who is known in the industry to produce quality YouTube and Instagram content—allows people to know off the bat that we are the real deal, and ready to win on their behalf. Currently, most agencies represent brands as opposed to celebrities. We only represent the talent, which gives us a lot more of the ability to be selective.”
