Plans for a Rugrats film adaptation, along with Ren and Stimpy and Doug, began when Nickelodeon made a contract with 20th Century Fox to produce them.

Production then began in 1995 after the television series had restarted after a small hiatus.

It became the first non-Disney animated film to gross over $100 million in the United States.The film was followed by two sequels: Rugrats in Paris: The Movie in 2000 and Rugrats Go Wild in 2003.
