“Scooby-Doo” Live Action Series Reportedly in the Works at Netflix
https://bloody-disgusting.com/tv/381...ks-at-netflix/
The second season of animated spinoff “Velma” is now streaming on Max, and it sounds like Velma and the “Scooby-Doo” gang may also be headed back into the world of live action. Variety reports this afternoon that Netflix is planning a live action “Scooby-Doo” television series, with the streamer actively “nearing a deal” with Warner Bros. Television. The series is being described in Variety’s report as a “one-hour drama project,” with Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg attached to write and executive produce. Executive producers on the upcoming “Scooby-Doo” Netflix series also include André Nemec and Jeff Pinkner for Midnight Radio, with Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, and Leigh London Redman executive producing through Berlanti Productions. Varierty’s report continues, “Jonathan Gabay of Berlanti Productions and Adrienne Erickson will co-executive produce.” “Scooby-Doo” has mostly been an animated series over the years, but there were two live action movies in 2002 and 2004: Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed. The live action cast for those two films included Matthew Lillard as Shaggy, Freddie Prinze Jr. as Fred, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Daphne, and Linda Cardellini as Velma.

I haven’t seen the Velma series. I don’t have HBO Max but it looked dumb.
Haven’t seen the 2 live action movies in a long time. I remember thinking they were alright. Need to see them again. The DTV live action movies were ok but nothing special. Never saw the Velma and Daphne stand-alone one. This could be cool. Hope it has a creepy tone like the recent Goosebumps (saw a couple of episodes they aired on tv). I wonder if they’ll update the van. I could see them streamline it a little and tone down the 70s look. Same colors and flowers but not as flashy. Side note the Guess Who episode with Morgan Freeman is hilarious.

Didn't we have a fan film that already did all this not too long ago?

Hey, so did you know the gap between Pup and What's New which is the longest between Scooby-Doo shows is only about ten years, beyond that's it's never been longer than three years and usually only about one. Scooby-Doo has basically been on the air constantly for 55 years.
And of course there has also been a bunch of TV movies bridging those gaps, that ten year gap actually has five of them.

The show has now been given the green light at Netflix, eight episodes have been commissioned.
https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/sco...-2-1236348715/ It starts with Shaggy and Daphne being paired up at the start as friends who attend summer camp, where they meet Fred and Velma later and learn Scooby is a witness to a supernatural crime. |
