The Mystery Machine is taking a ride to Netflix, with plans in the works to bring Scooby-Doo to life as a live-action series. Once a deal for the series is reached, the project has a straight-to-series order, and the iconic classic will get a reboot at last.
Supergirl co-creator Greg Berlanti serves as executive producer, and Cowboy Bebop writer duo Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg will join the crew as scriptwriters. No plot details have been released as of now, but further updates are and expected soon.
Scooby-Doo follows a group of friends and their dog, Scooby, solving mysteries of a supernatural nature and unmasking criminals. A live-action movie was made in 2002 with a sequel, but both films were poorly-received. A 2009 telefilm attempted to reboot the live-action series, ending its run with a second film in 2011. More than ten years later, a third attempt at a reboot has finally surfaced, and with plenty of changes since 2011, it’ll be interesting to see how a Scooby-Doo live-action TV series tackles these modern issues.
It’ll be a while before we see Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. crew in action again, but it’ll be well worth the wait.
