Development
In 2010, it was reported that the sequel is coming, but the movie must ordered by Nicekodeon Movie that it must gross $100 million domestically by August 22, 2010 in order to get a sequel. Therefore, Paramount Pictures says that it will not make it and doesn't want to disappoint fans. So it than decided to take $10 million away to gross at least $90 million to make it by August 22. Therefore, Nickelodeon Movie does not except that report. When the film finally made it to $90 million what Paramount told, Paramount Pictures and eventually Nickelodeon Movie put a sequel in greenlight. Originally to be as a direct-to-video sequel, but with the success of iCarly: The Movie grossing $400 million worldwide, they decided to release the film theatrically in theaters.

The sequel is to be titled iCarly: The Sequel where it means that this is the second installment after the first one. On August 23, 2010, Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies confirmed the film's July 27, 2012 release date, two years after the previous film.

It was revealed that the scenes will be similar to Titanic where Miranda Cosgrove has seen the film saying if her TV show would be going on cruise for their vacation, as the ship is about to get sunked after it was hit by a large iceberg. Cosgrove states: "I think the new episode of iCarly will be a movie where our characters goes on vacation until they get hit by a iceberg which causes the boat to sink and collapse. That would be to scary for iCarly, but I want it to do something much different like trying to save the boat from getting hit by a iceberg." Jennette McCurdy also reports of this announcement, "The movie will be more than an action packed adventure."

Filming
Currently, the film is in pre-production beginning on November 2010. Principal photography is to begin for iCarly: The Sequel in July 2011 and to wrap up by October, for a July 27, 2012 release.
