- Scooby-Doo: Origins Season 1 has wrapped production and is slated to premiere globally on Netflix in 2027
- For the first time in franchise history, Scooby-Doo is being portrayed by a real Great Dane dog rather than animated
- The series reimagines the mystery-solving group with Shaggy (Tanner Hagen) and Daphne (Mckenna Grace) drawn into a supernatural murder case during their final summer at camp
- Velma is played by Abby Ryder Fortson and Freddy by Maxwell Jenkins, rounding out the core teen sleuths
- Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg serve as showrunners, writers, and executive producers, with Greg Berlanti also EPing through Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television
- The Scooby-Doo franchise was created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears and launched in 1969 on CBS with 'Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!'
Why it matters: Netflix is doubling down on live-action IP adaptations with a 2027 launch target, handing the Scooby-Doo baton to Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television — meaning the streamer now holds a major Hanna-Barbera tentpole with a first-ever real-dog Scooby that could define the franchise's next era.
