Production:
A feature film for the Fairly OddParents was initially planned. The film was originally supposed to be released in 2006, but the movie was never developed. In early 2019, despite leaving Nickelodeon in 2018, Butch Hartman stated that he might start production on the Fairly OddParents feature film again. Nickelodeon Movies then greenlit the Fairly OddParents feature film under the title "Fairly OddParents: The Movie" in March 2019. Production officially began in April 2019. The idea was the movie improves on the TV Series, since the last few seasons did not do well. Butch Hartman was concerned about the idea of making a movie on the Fairly OddParents, since there wasn't enough crew members to produce the film. Hartman then re-signed Sarah Frost (who directed the episodes of Season 5) and Jaime Diaz (who directed episodes of Season 1) to direct the film.

Story:
Writing a story for the film was very difficult for the crew since the story had to have the original roots of the series. The idea of the story is to improve from the TV series. Butch Hartman was concerned since he wanted the story of the movie to be entertaining and appealing to audiences without losing charm the series had. Hartman then tried to find strongest writers as possible. He then re-signed Kevin Arrieta, Will Schifrin, Sindy Spackman, and Kevin Sullivan to start a fresh new story for the film. Butch Hartman also wrote the story for the film.

Animation:
Animation began in June 2019. Butch Hartman did not want a CGI film. He said that making a CGI film would be a bad idea since it will destroy the true animation of the series. The animation was to be animated like the older episodes in the series. All of the animation was done by Yeson Entertainment like the series. Hartman described the animation as a tribute to the older episodes that were animated with digital ink and paint. Hartman also stated that he wanted the animation to stay true to the original series.

Backgrounds:
All of the backgrounds in the film were given a different look to them. The backgrounds' outer lines were removed and replacing them with inner lines only for details. The backgrounds were colored and designed by the same palettes from the original series. with slightly new bright color tints to give it the more colorful and modern look.

Casting:
Tara Strong announced that she will reprise her role as Timmy Turner. Daran Norris and Susan Blaskeslee will also return as their roles of Cosmo and Wanda, and Timmy's parents. The rest of the cast was confirmed in August 2019.

Removement of Characters:
Since the team of Fairly OddParents: The Movie wanted the film to improve a lot, they first removed certain characters out of the film, these characters include: Poof, Sparky and Chloe. They were removed since they received a lot of negative reception from fans. Although the character Poof did not get as much negative reception as Sparky and Chloe did, he still got written out of the movie, since the team wanted the film to feel like the original run of the series.

Visual Effects:
The visual effects were also done by Yeson Entertainment. The visual effects required a lot of time and thinking for them to stay true to the series, and also to be magical and fufilling, but not too exciting or crazy, but also not too poor looking either.

Post-Production:
Robert Poole II, the sound editor from the original series. He used the same sound effects for the wish granting and wands from the series. Some effects will be cartoony, while others will sound a bit more realistic.

Music:
Like in the original series, Guy Moon composes all of the score in the film. Moon stated that composing the music for a Fairly OddParents feature film was a challenge as he wanted the score to stay true to the style of Fairly OddParents and be appealing and full of emotion without wearing the audience out.

Marketing:
Butch Hartman was at the 2019 San Diego Comic-con to announce that a brand new Fairly OddParents feature is in the works. At first, people were very skeptical because they thought the film would be worse than the later seasons of the Fairly OddParents series. But when Butch Hartman stated that Poof, Sparky and Chloe would not be in the film, it got many people surprised. Hartman stated that the film is going to be an improvement of the series, and that the older characters that weren't mentioned in the newer seasons, like Trixie Tang and Veronica, would return in the film.

Theatrical release promotions:

 * When the movie is released, Paramount announced that they will start releasing season sets of the show themselves on DVD. Since the Amazon sets of the seasons are going to be out of stock completely in June 2021.
