Netflix has revealed the full cast of this new incarnation of Scooby-Doo, and it will feature Maxwell Jenkins as the group’s leader, Fred Jones, while former MCU and Ant-Man star Abby Ryder Fortson (who played Cassie Lang) will be playing the team’s best detective in Velma Dinkley. Tanner Hagen will be playing the role of Scoob’s best pal, Shaggy Rogers, and McKenna Grace will be starring in the role of Daphne Blake. We don’t know what Scooby-Doo will look like just yet, but now that the cast is set, hopefully we’ll get a full team photo sooner rather than later.
Netflix’s Live-Action Series Will Be A Franchise Reimagining
For this latest live-action version, Netflix is looking to reimagine the classic franchise while also retaining the core of what has made Scooby-Doo such a beloved franchise for decades. This will give the Mystery Inc. crew a full origin story, showing how the gang first meets not only each other but also how they come into contact with Scoob, and it’s all tied to a creepy case that is threatening to turn their lives upside down.
The official synopsis also teases that Scooby-Doo witnessed a supernatural murder, which is the central mystery that pulls the characters into the same orbit, though it’s also established that Shaggy and Daphne are already old friends when the chaos starts. You can find the official synopsis below.
