Hey Arnold!: Save the Jungle, also known as Hey Arnold!: The Movie: Save the Jungle is an upcoming animated film for 2013 written and directed by Mario Edward Soto Robinson, based in the characters created by Craig Bartlett. The movie takes seven years after the episode "The Journal", that supposed to be the last episode of the series. It's said that the movie also hasn't relationship with the 2002 film.

Originally, The Jungle Movie was supposed to be released as the theatrical feature of the series, but the made-for-TV movie, Arnold Saves the Neighborhood, was given the release instead in 2002.

Drafts of the movie were written and developed between 1998-2001 and is rumoured to be in its 6th or 7th draft. A special one-hour episode "The Journal" was also made to link the series to the movie.

However, after Hey Arnold!: The Movie turned out unsuccessful and due to other complications, Nickelodeon decided to cancel the project.

Nickelodeon and Paramount own the rights to the film and the story, but there were noplans to put it into production, until the director Mario Edward Soto Robinson decided to restart the project, but to his own account, with the supervision of Mr. Bartlett.

Plot
Arnold's name is revealed in the opening scene. A man comes to the door of the boarding house with a package for Arnold and he signs his full name.

Arnold and his friends, who have 16 years old and are now in the High School, go to San Lorenzo in Central America after Arnold wins them an essay contest. However, Arnold has his own secret agenda to go look for his parents with the map that he found in "The Journal".

Arnold meets the Green Eyes, the people his parents were helping. When Arnold was born he silenced all of nature (the erupting volcano); the Green Eyes have a design motif that is like a football head in all their architecture, etc. and when they see baby Arnold's head, they think he is divine. They are also impressed with Helga's ferocity. It makes the Green Eyes to semi-worship Arnold and Helga. The Green-eyes also think very highly of Miles and Stella, because they’ve all saved each other’s lives before, many times.

La Sombra, a villain who was briefly seen in "The Journal" is a big character of the movie, he is Miles and Stella's nemesis. He is a mercenary treasure hunter and river pirate, who goes in disguise. La Sombra is after La Corazon, a fabulous jewel and a sacred relic of the Green-Eyed people, which is not to be seen in the light of day.
