Production and development
On June 11, 2013, Teletoon announced the original series renewal for season 7 consisting of 13 episodes and a three-part special. However, in response to a tweet on June 25, 2015, voice actor James Arnold Taylor stated that he wasn't aware of any plans for more seasons.
However, on March 15, 2019, when Wildbrain (previously known as DHX Media) released a video confirming the show's revival along with web shorts (titled: Johnny Test: The Lost Web Series) on the official Johnny Test YouTube channel, but were set to private in October of that year.
In January 2020, WildBrain announced that their Vancouver studio was hiring for a new Johnny Test project separate from the web shorts (released on May 2, 2020, but later made private). On May 6, 2020, WildBrain confirmed the series had been picked up by Netflix for two more seasons and a 66-minute interactive special set for release in 2021, with Fellows returning as showrunner and executive producer.[4] In June 2021, it was announced that most of the main cast would reprise their respective roles.[5]
