Part I begins as Danny, Rebecca and Alec are being warned from Catwoman that the Final Rush is being falling from the sky after a terrifying evil wish from the Magic Ball. The only thing that they have to do is to stop it from falling, trying not to touch it, due to Catwoman distances a killing spell to take them to their cheating death. "Meanwhile, the world has become a dangerous place, as the badniks begin killing and murdering people leading them to build up their own army so they can take over the world. And the only thing that Catwoman first can do: destroy Danny. The idea that she can easily take over the world thus ait was-a secret key-that she hopes that she can destroy his friendship if she kills him and kill them next." After learning the truth for the murder of Don's wife and Alice's mother Janet by Catwoman, Danny, Rebecca and Alec were the only hopes to make Catwoman to stop the madness or else she do something worse. The thing that Catwoman will never be stopped is-love-emotions for true feelings.

Development
 "Over the years, we tried to start by making the fifth film to be made into two movies, but find out that one of the couple of scenes were removed, so we don't have to make it into two movies. The movie came out in the entire movie anyways! For Jane Hoop Elementary: The Final Rush, it is the sixth and final book of Rita Christensen's franchise. This one would be very much darker like the others, and one of the longest book into the franchise. It is so long that there's too much information into it, so perfect to make it into a movie. This is why that we should split this movie into two parts, and has soo many information made for this two-part finale.

We were thinking to start making the longest movie than the other one into the franchise. It may take almost a year to start filming this movie, which this will be our last time to make this Hoop movie. I'm really excited to start to direct a movie that start cheering "Go Break A Leg" and made my work complete. This will prove the movie how successful it would be for fans - thanks to a very special person [Author] - who wrote the franchise is Miss. Rita [Christensen] - making it to have an complete and beautiful art of work to end as soon as possible."

- James Calvin, the director of the film, on decision, diving sixth and final Jane Hoop Elementary novel into seperate two-parts.[1] Since the announcement of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows being made into two parts, a two-part film adaptation of Jane Hoop Elementary: The Final Rush is ready to be set for it's theatrical release for the last time. Just than, it was originally reported for the previous film to be split into two movies, scheduling Part 1 for November 14, 2008 release and Part 2 for July 10, 2009 release, but the plan wasn't in success, because of the book "not as long as the others" back in 2007.[1] The Final Rush was shot back-to-back for confirming to filming to be made only in direct order according to Paramount Pictures.[1] Derek Todd talks to Rita Christensen about the book, and she told him that the book she has written seems to be long, and Todd is possibly is going to remove several of scenes for the movie that came from the book. Although, it was being trated as one film, but was made into two.[1] Produer Derek Todd starts onto helping Clark to start searching for to make this movie completely different from the book, but can do it soon as possible. Blake Brown describes Part 1 of the film: "The first part is a road and time traveling movie, because of there are so many traveling scenes where we have to go to. We've been to like seven different or more places we have been there ever since. Brown also describes Part 2: "The second part might only be a road movie, because of going through many places we have to go, would be interesting."[1]

Derek Todd has begin onto writting scripts onto the movie. With Tara Jones wanting to return, it has been a while since Dan Kroger start editing the first two films, till being replace by Amy Vanish for the second first two films, and Jones does the fifth, Kroger likes to return to editing for this films. Dan Wilson is returning to start composing the film's soundtrack. Brian Clark has began writting scripts on May 1, 2009, which it may take nearly months for him to complete the scripts, when he is still writting them as of July 2009. Clark notices that he'll be start making the movie's bigger budget for past 1 year, but by the time, Paramount Pictures can only do it's job, to starts making the production budget bigger or smaller than the preceded film. Clark finished the script at 2:00 p.m. on October 30, 2009.

Todd explains for the story for the movie being made into two movies, of the first part of the movie: "Part 1 will end with Danny getting a choice to give Catwoman the Crystal Power, or else she will murder Rebecca."[1] He also explains to Part 2: "It will continue with Danny and friends being kidnapped by Catwoman all the way to the end of the movie."[1] Other films that are been made into two parts is again Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn.

On June 21, 2010, the film is expected to be rated R, due to strong bloody images, but Paramount Picutres studios does not allow to it. They said: "because no one under 13 will be watching it. Some of the adults were not going to watch, and the movie would not do well. They're expecting to rated both parts of the movie neither a PG or a PG-13 rating. R rated is a bad idea for fans. They want fans, or fans under the age of 13 to watch this movie. Just because they're just some strong bloody images, does it mean that only people at age of 17 will have to see it. This is for both parts. They're are rumors that neither that The Final Rush will be getting an R rating, because they're be strong violence into this movie. This indeed will not be true. This will be ruining the dreams that just because that it was just one of the children's books."
